Cool Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2

Are we thinking in the right "sphere"? What about Right Ascension, Declination, Date....It would give the position of some celestial object, and explain the 3rd number, and Dave Lavery is a NASA guy...anyone have a starmapping program handy?

Sorry to come form left field--just my first impression.
