message: How can the 1979 Sky and Telescope reference be edited, since it shows up as a hidden entry for me? The author should be Steven Albers - that's me in fact.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.75.201.73 (talk) 22:14, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Can occultation also be described as occluding? I see this usage on the solar eclipse article. Perhaps it should be added here. Rauisuchian (talk) 18:38, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Occluding 

message: I understand the reasoning that Pollux will be occultable by the moon in the future, around 25000 years based on it's proper motion and the moon's ecliptic inclination, as well as lunar parallax and angular radius. What is the basis for saying it could be occulted in the past - by either moon or planets? Is this actually predictable?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:281:8200:BD60:216E:1606:997B:E8C5 (talk) 20:20, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pollux occultations 

message: "If the nearer planet appears larger than the more distant one, the event is called a mutual planetary occultation."
The primary literature uses the term mutual just to refer to the fact that one planet is occulting another, regardless of the apparent sizes of the two. So whether the nearer one has a smaller or larger apparent diameter does not determine whether it is mutual or not, but it does determine whether it can be annular or total. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:881E:A6AF:CA0:836A (talk) 14:00, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incorrect definition? 

message: I'm curious about the links their must be between "the occult" and occulting.  It is a very distinct word. tx Billyshiverstick (talk) 16:19, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
