Anybody know exactly how Right Ascension and Declination works? I'm doing something for my school and I need a little help on it.

Anybody?

Anybody? I seriously need a bit of help on this one, and I can't find a good explanation on the internet. Even a link to a site would be helpful.:)

So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

Astronomy's also incredibly confusing without the help of a nice computer. ;)
That's the best way... just get your computer to move your telescope to track whatever it is.

Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.
