one for the back log - although getting head around all the variables - kind of makes sense to surface them all. screen shot 2017-12-02 at 10 22 32 pm

so using the SwiftAA library - should be able to use an incrementing julian day / date to work out positions of planets rather than how it's currently rigged up with core animation.

need to surface some of these variables to flesh out celestial coordinates.

this project - https://github.com/johndpope/Planetarium built in c# is mapping a 3d celestial view into RA/Decl circles Location + Date/Time

its built on top of AAsharp (which has some nice helper functions)
