Talk:Phase angle (astronomy)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The value of 180 is the position when the object is between the illuminator and the observer, known as the astronomical opposition

That sounds wrong. Astronomical opposition is one case where the phase angle is 0. I think this should say The value of 180 is the position when the object is between the illuminator and the observer, known as the astronomical inferior conjunction --Albert White 14:22, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
