Expected Behaviour
Timing of ingress & egress of occultations of stars and planets should be accurate within a few seconds.
Actual Behaviour
Recent occultation ingress timings of Saturn, Mars and stars were off beween ~40-60 seconds compared to actual observations, even after checking that the observing location was correct and clock used for timing NTP synchronized.
More specifically, ingress time of 8.1 mag star on 2025/01/11 was predicted for 20:43:04 UTC, 41s earlier than actual observation.
Start and end of Mars ingress on 20250114 was predicted 04:10:37 and 04:11:13 UTC, 51 seconds/ 57 seconds earlier than observation.
Observation was at 28°46'18.59" N 17°57'33,96", 1000 asl.
