So much for correcting a reckless conclusion which tried to subvert the principles of the Lat/Long system with the nonsensical Ra/Dec format...
Tell us, Gerald, what exactly is 'nonsensical' about the Ra/Dec format? It is essential for locating objects in the night sky, and in that regard, it is an essential tool for astronomers, both amateur and professional. Virtually everyone understands this very well, except, obviously, yourself. It has little, if anything, to do with timekeeping on Earth, and in no way is it attempting to "subvert the principles of the Lat/Long system"... now THAT notion is truly nonsensical!
It will take you many years to unlearn what you think you know about astronomy, for right now it is essentially nothing at all...
