Over 5°


Dxy = distance between the body x and that y, in degrees
GROUP = minima distance of the group, in degrees
EL = elongation from the Sun, in degrees
MAGx = magnitude of the body x
MAGT = total magnitude of the group
ALT = height on the horizon of the geometric baricentre of the group, in degrees
AZ = azimuth of the geometric baricentre of the group, in degrees from north
