Projection
The two arguments correspond to two angles on the celestial sphere. These two angles can take a different meaning according to context. For example, in the simple case of stereographic projection centered on the North Celestial Pole, the two arguments correspond to the (aberrated) zenith angle from the Pole and the right ascension, respectively. For the full-sky projections, the two arguments correspond more to latitude and longitude (declination and right ascension), respectively.
