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-6757","name":"HD 6757","class":"a0_white_star","category":"star","object_type":"A0 white star","mag":7.81,"mag_band":"V","abs_mag":0.435,"abs_mag_band":"V","distance_ly":973.6012492128078,"distance_method":"parallax","ra_deg":17.22144,"dec_deg":45.207449,"epoch_ra_deg":17.608483,"epoch_dec_deg":45.350713,"epoch_moved_arcsec":0.315,"pm_ra_mas_yr":-4.1,"pm_dec_mas_yr":-11.08,"orbits":null,"semi_major_axis_km":null,"periapsis_km":null,"mass_kg":null,"mass_msun":null,"constellation":"Andromeda","discovered":null,"featured":false,"url":"https://spacecatalog.org/object/hd-6757","radius_km":null,"radius_kind":null,"data_quality":null,"description":null,"properties":{"wds_id":"01089+4512","companions":[{"measured":2018,"magnitude":9.5,"components":"AB","discoverer_code":"AC   13","separation_arcsec":0.6,"position_angle_deg":265},{"measured":2016,"magnitude":11.3,"components":"AB,C","discoverer_code":"HJ 2018","separation_arcsec":16.7,"position_angle_deg":8}],"spectral_type":"A0","color_index_bv":0.044,"luminosity_solar":58.34451042737448,"radial_velocity_km_s":0,"proper_motion_ra_mas_yr":-4.1,"proper_motion_dec_mas_yr":-11.08},"designations":[{"catalog":"HD","designation":"HD 6757"},{"catalog":"HIP","designation":"HIP 5385"}],"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.
