Astrometry

Astrometry data file have to have the extension .psn. The following gives an example for Algol, where the columns give the hierarchical component designation, the Julian year of observation, separation (in mas) and position angle (in degrees from N over E), major and minor axis (in mas), and position angle of the major axis of the error ellipse (in degrees, from N over E).
