Hi, My professor ask me if I could make program which would draw celestial sphere with (celestial) measurements on it to show celestial coordinates of some (celestial) body. My idea was that I could draw sphere in mathematica, and with celestial coordinates given by user input the program would draw celestial curves (declination, ascension...). Can I draw curves on sphere in Mathematica? Is this possible in new version of Mathematica (5.1 and higher)? Because GeometricalGeodesy (a new Mathematica application package) is now available, and I don't know if some of this problems can be solved without this new package. Thanks, Matija
