Searching for HIP-id of stars delivers inconsistent results

Open stx-chris opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Expected Behaviour

Searching for the HIP id of a particular star returns the predefined star. HIP 21402 should correspond to HIP 21402 A in the Stellarium catalog.

Actual Behaviour

Searching for the HIP id of a particular star does not always deliver the predefined star. HIP 21402 corresponds to HIP 21402 C in the Stellarium catalog.

Steps to reproduce

Intending to get to star "HIP 21402 A":

  1. Search for HIP 21402 in the search window.
  2. See the result "d Tau - 88 Tau - ..... - HIP 21402 C - ..."
  3. Search for "d Tau" instead, no immediate results (only a SIMBAD reference).
  4. Click on the brightest star in the neighborhood (HIP 21402 A)5.
  5. See the result "d Tau - 88 Tau - .... - HIP 21402 A - ...

System

  • Stellarium version: 0.22.1
  • Operating system: Mac OS
