Stars have many ways of being identified - ancient peoples had
descriptive names for many brighter ones. Later, as the sky was
divided up into formal constellations, Johann Bayer (1572-1625)
applied a letter in the Greek alphabet according to magnitude or
brightness to the more prominent stars, combined with the Latin
name of the constellation. More recently, as more and more stars
needed to be identified, successive cataloguing systems were
developed, essential for professional astronomers but lacking the
poetry of the early nomenclature.
An example of Bayer's system would be Beta Tauri, the 2nd brightest
star in the constellation Taurus, and written in abbreviated form
as ßTau. This star was already known to the Arabs as El Nath
(the butting one) and that is its 'common' name to this day.
In this puzzle, the decimal minutes of the cache location are coded
as a series of standard Bayer abbreviations identifying particular
stars. The listed coordinates are only for the general area - do
not go there.
Your task is to ascertain the 'common' name for each star. The
first letter of that name is then converted into a number according
to it's position in our alphabet (A=1, B=2 etc). Finally, string
the numbers together to get the true coordinates, from where all
the stars 'above' can be seen, although at different times of the
year. Assuming of course that the nearby resting place of previous
citizens does not bother you!
