Hi Rob

Stellarium is correct. I read it wrong The current distance for 23-9-2012 is 35'53.53" in Stellarium. However Stellarium relies on the pixel count and the error is a function of the FOV and can be nearly 2 arc seconds in a 40 arcminute FOV

I should have zoomed in further and reduced the pixel count error
