The catalogued J2000 position is carried along the great circle the object's own published motion puts it on, at a constant velocity, and the result is referred to the true equator and equinox of this instant. Those are separate things: the motion moves the object, and the rotation turns the grid under it by about fifty arcseconds a year, with nutation adding up to another seventeen.","excluded":"Parallax, the radial-velocity perspective term, aberration and refraction; each is below the accuracy of the catalogued positions themselves. An object with no published proper motion comes back where the catalogue has it rather than at a fabricated zero, and says so with a null pm_ra_mas_yr. A body with no fixed position is not propagated at all — its place comes from an ephemeris, which is what /api/v1/visible answers with."},"slug":"hd-112115","name":"HD 112115","class":"g9iii_yellow_giant","category":"star","object_type":"G9III yellow giant","mag":8.11,"mag_band":"V","abs_mag":0.553,"abs_mag_band":"V","distance_ly":1058.9491978209699,"distance_method":"parallax","ra_deg":193.480935,"dec_deg":24.6359,"epoch_ra_deg":193.809597,"epoch_dec_deg":24.489996,"epoch_moved_arcsec":1.03,"pm_ra_mas_yr":-36.8,"pm_dec_mas_yr":-11.69,"orbits":null,"semi_major_axis_km":null,"periapsis_km":null,"mass_kg":null,"mass_msun":null,"constellation":"Coma Berenices","discovered":null,"featured":false,"url":"https://spacecatalog.org/object/hd-112115","radius_km":null,"radius_kind":null,"data_quality":null,"description":null,"properties":{"wds_id":"12539+2438","companions":[{"measured":2012,"magnitude":10.7,"components":null,"discoverer_code":"YSC  47","separation_arcsec":0.1,"position_angle_deg":325}],"spectral_type":"G9III","color_index_bv":1.039,"luminosity_solar":52.3359365186758,"radial_velocity_km_s":0,"spectral_type_source":"SIMBAD (1997JApA...18..161Y, quality C)","proper_motion_ra_mas_yr":-36.8,"proper_motion_dec_mas_yr":-11.69},"designations":[{"catalog":"HD","designation":"HD 112115"},{"catalog":"HIP","designation":"HIP 62943"}],"source":{"id":"hyg","name":"HYG Database v4.1","url":"https://github.com/astronexus/HYG-Database","license":"CC-BY-SA-4.0"},"updated_at":"2026-09-02T19:50:56.720Z","attribution":"Data from SpaceCatalog.org.
