Branch: `phase/spgist-orbital-trie`. + +**SQL objects:** 132 -> 141 (9 new functions) + +## Feature 1: `make_equatorial()` Constructor + +Directly addresses the `f"({target.ra_hours},{target.dec_deg},0)"` pattern in `_objects_near_python()`. + +```sql +-- Before (fragile text cast): +SELECT * FROM sky_cache +ORDER BY eq <-> '(4.292,20.600,0.000)'::equatorial +LIMIT 10; + +-- After (typed bind parameters): +SELECT * FROM sky_cache +ORDER BY eq <-> make_equatorial($1, $2, 0.0) +LIMIT 10; +``` + +`IMMUTABLE STRICT PARALLEL SAFE`. Same validation as `equatorial_in()`: RA in `[0, 24)`, Dec in `[-90, 90]`, rejects NaN/Inf. + +## Feature 2: Rise/Set Predictions (8 functions) + +| Function | Threshold | Notes | +|----------|-----------|-------| +| `planet_next_rise(body_id, obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | body_id 1-8, rejects 0 (Sun) and 3 (Earth) | +| `planet_next_set(body_id, obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | | +| `sun_next_rise(obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | | +| `sun_next_set(obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | | +| `moon_next_rise(obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | | +| `moon_next_set(obs, t)` | 0.0 deg | | +| `sun_next_rise_refracted(obs, t)` | -0.833 deg | Refraction + semidiameter | +| `sun_next_set_refracted(obs, t)` | -0.833 deg | | + +All `STABLE STRICT PARALLEL SAFE`. Returns `NULL` if no crossing within 7 days (circumpolar / polar night). Bisection to 0.1s precision, adapted from the satellite pass prediction algorithm. + +Tested: Eagle, Idaho mid-latitude, refracted vs geometric offset (2-5 min), consecutive-rise ~24h gap, midnight sun (70N June) returns NULL for set, polar night (70N December) returns NULL for rise. + +**Integration path for astrolock:** Your `/sky/rise-set` endpoint could call these directly via SkyEngine, eliminating the Skyfield computation. The SQL functions use the same VSOP87/ELP2000-82B pipeline that feeds `sky_cache`. + +## Feature 3: Nutation (IAU 2000B) + +The existing `get_nutation_angles_iau2000b()` in `precession.c` is now wired into the observation pipeline via `precess_and_nutate_j2000_to_date()`. Four dominant lunisolar terms, ~17.2 arcsec amplitude in longitude, ~9.2 arcsec in obliquity. + +**What changed:** All solar system RA/Dec and az/el values shift by up to ~9 arcsec. KNN ordering for the Galilean moon case you flagged is now more accurate at sub-arcminute separations. + +**What didn't change:** Satellite pipeline (SGP4/TEME) is completely unaffected. All 8 satellite-only test suites are bit-identical to v0.12.0. + +## Migration + +```sql +ALTER EXTENSION pg_orrery UPDATE TO '0.13.0'; +``` + +No reindex needed. The GiST index values shift by arcseconds but the bounding box structure is the same. + +--- + +**Next steps for recipient:** +- [ ] astrolock-web: Replace `f"({target.ra_hours},{target.dec_deg},0)"` with `make_equatorial($1, $2, 0.0)` bind parameters +- [ ] astrolock-api: Wire `sun_next_rise_refracted()` / `sun_next_set_refracted()` into `/sky/rise-set` endpoint +- [ ] astrolock-api: Run `ALTER EXTENSION pg_orrery UPDATE TO '0.13.0'` on production after pg_orrery v0.13.0 is tagged
