Abstract

Positions for 350 FK5 and 164 FK5 Extension stars as determined with the Danjon astrolabe of Santiago and differences astrolabe − catalogue are given for Equinox J2000.0 and for the mean observation epoch of each star. The average mean error in alpha is ±0.005s and ±0.07″ in delta. The mean epoch of observation of the catalogue is J1979.96
