Jon Chesey: The SCAdian Astronomical Epoch – Solar Position (Research Papers)

• An astronomical epoch is a date on which the position of celestial objects is calculated. Using those positions and the motions of the objects, the future position of them can be predicted. In this paper, I explore how Ptolemy determined the position of the sun for the epoch he used in the Almagest, and follow his methodology to create a new epoch suitable for modern times and use within the SCA.
