Hello every one,
Is there any routine in IDL which calculates airmass for particular date using only RA, DEC, EPOCH??? Basically I want to have a most general routine which is independent of telescope header as RA, DEC, EPOCH are the headers which are provided by all telescopes. Some provide UT ST ect some do not.

Look at the program eq2hor.pro in the IDL astrolib.
