I couldn't finish all the work I was supposed to do at my school's computer lab...I was sick one of the days we were doing it. Could someone who has the program Starry Night or a similar program help me with some questions?
Thank you!

Thanks!!
For the summer solstice (6/21) viewed from Chicago, IL, what's the altitude and azimuth of the sun at its highest point (nearest degree for both), and its right ascension (nearest hour) and declination (nearest degree).

Set the location to Chicago by clicking in the location box in the toolbar and choosing "Other". Choose Chicago from the list. Set the date by clicking in the date fields. Click on the Sun to select it. Click on the Info tab. Click on the button to the right of "Transit" and look for the altitude, azimuth, etc. under "Position in sky".
