The New American Ephemeris for the 21st Century 2000-2100 at
Midnight, Michelsen Memorial Edition Compiled and Programmed by
Rique Pottenger, based on the earlier work of Neil F Michelsen
Memorial text and Introduction compiled and written by Maria Kay
Simms In 1976, Neil F Michelsen (1931-1990) compiled, programmed
and published the first edition of The American Ephemeris that set
new standards of accuracy for contemporary astrology. In 2006,
celebrating the 30th anniversary of first publication of the first
volume of work that grew to become Michelsen's comprehensive
American Ephemeris series, Rique Pottenger continued the work that
Neil began. Within The New American Ephemeris for the 21st Century
2000-2100 at Midnight is the familiar data and format long used and
trusted by astrologers worldwide, now updated and expanded, with
new features. This ephemeris is unique among others in the series
for its memorial text section that documents, partially from
excerpts from Michelsen's own writing, and partially from
testimonials of colleagues, a history of the development of
computer technology for astrology. Features of this entire 21st
century edition include improvements in the computer generating
program that enable finding double ingresses in a single day plus
more accurate station times. Ceres, the asteroid that was elevated
to planetary status by the IAU (International Astronomical Union)
in 2006, has been added to the daily longitude listings in her
position between Mars and Jupiter. The new planet Eris, whose
discovery precipitated the IAU decisions of 2006, moves, at most,
about 3 minutes per month, so her position is listed once per month
in the Astro Data box, along with monthly positions for Chiron,
Pallas, Juno and Vesta. A new formula increases the accuracy of
monthly positions of the Galactic Center. Phenomena listed in the
Astro Data column are sorted by time as well as by date. Also, the
planetary ingress data includes R if the planet is retrograde when
it ingresses.
