Is there a calculator for this hidden somewhere in the thread? Nevermind, found Chintan's sheet in the mars thread.

 

Location for this month is 32, -74 again (apparently, I forgot to move last month...)

&lat=-28&lon=156  gave 99%

 

&lat=-28.00000000001&lon=156.00000000001 gave 99% as well

 

&lat=-27.99999999999&lon=155.99999999999 gave 99% as well

Try:

 

lon=156&lat=-28

 

Should at least be 99%. Possible this is one of the spots that needs to add .00000000001

Ok, script is saying to try lon=156&lat=-28.99999999 now.

 

I never got my script to do the errors quite right, so if that is wrong I would try:

lon=156&lat=-29.00000001

lon=156&lat=-28.99999998

lon=156&lat=-29.00000002

etc.

 

The longitude has never been affected by the floating point errors. Chintan's attempts to nail down the error predicted a few spots where the error jiggle was different from the .99999999 my script outputs, but I don't think we have ever seen those points. Maybe this is a first.

Moon Hotspot Location* (June 2016):

(-79, 50) URL Segment: lat=-79&lon=50

 

*58% likely. Alternative points are (-78, 51), (-78, 50), and (-78, 52) with 17%, 12.4%, and 12.3% likelihoods respectively.

 

(Note: If you're reading this in the future and the current hotspot has not been posted, please share your coordinates/effectivenesses to help find it.)

Just a reminder for everyone using my google sheet to find the hotspots (@Ghuxalia@jraenar, etc.):  Get the latest version of the google sheet.  I updated the probabilities based on the latest observed hotspots, which makes them different from the probabilities in previous versions of the google sheet.

 

Also for those of you new to this thread, here's my google sheet for finding the hotspots:

 

Moon & Mars Hotspot Finder (Google Sheet)

You'll have to save a copy to use it (you can just save it to your own Google Drive or download it).  And you'll have to give it a few seconds to calculate after entering your test points.

That worked really well. It took me 3 tries to get the 100% on my own, 2 results at 99% though, which is excellent.

The moon hotspot is at Latitude +28.99999998 and Longitude -79.

 

&lat=28.99999998&lon=-79

 

Cheers!
