Since the primary function of observing planets for modeling is not demanding, Jon seeks to use the quadrant for other astronomical goals. In particular, he is working to build a catalog of the position of stars based on his observations. This is inspired by the 1603 publication the ''Uranometria'' which took Tycho's observations and turned them into illustrated star maps. At present, Jon's catalog has over 450 stars, positions of which are based on over 1,100 observations. | Since the primary function of observing planets for modeling is not demanding, Jon seeks to use the quadrant for other astronomical goals.
