Difference between Hipparcos and Mira

Hipparcos vs. Mira

Hipparcos was a scientific satellite of the European Space Agency (ESA), launched in 1989 and operated until 1993. Mira, alternatively designated Omicron Ceti (ο Ceti, abbreviated Omicron Cet, ο Cet) is a red giant star estimated to be 200–400 light years from the Sun in the constellation of Cetus.

Similarities between Hipparcos and Mira

Epoch (astronomy)

In astronomy, an epoch is a moment in time used as a reference point for some time-varying astronomical quantity, such as the celestial coordinates or elliptical orbital elements of a celestial body, because these are subject to perturbations and vary with time.
