<task category="manipulation, calibration" name="fixplanets" type="function">
<shortdescription>Changes FIELD and SOURCE table entries based on user-provided direction or POINTING table, optionally fixes the UVW coordinates</shortdescription>
This task's main purpose is to correct observations which were
performed with correct pointing and correlation but for which
incorrect direction information was entered in the FIELD and SOURCE
table of the MS. If you actually want to change the phase center of
the visibilties in an MS, you should use task fixvis.
