JNow or J2000 ?

Hi All,

I have been playing around with Starry Night, and when you highlight a DSO, it gives 2 sets of RA/Dec figures, amongst all of the other information.

The first is J2000, and the other is JNow. Which do you use, when hunting manually? I am assuming it is the latter, because of the name, but I would greatly appreciate a definitive answer.

Thanks in advance.
