Maximum altitude of the sun

[edit]

should be 53.44⁰ / 6.56⁰ = (90-60±23.44)⁰

The values in the text are for a axis tilt of 23.83⁰, which won't happen anytime soon. (see Ecliptic).

They're neither the apparent (due to atmospheric refaction) altitudes - as then, both would be higher than computed. --Nomentz (talk) 11:42, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
