* The :meth:`~skyfield.positionlib.Astrometric.apparent()` method now
12+
accepts an optional ``deflectors=`` argument that lets callers control
13+
the list of bodies (by default the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn) for which
14+
the deflection of light is computed. Callers can provide an empty
15+
list to turn deflection off.

* The two routines :func:`~skyfield.almanac.find_risings()` and
1218
:func:`~skyfield.almanac.find_settings()` now skip deflection when
1319
computing the target’s apparent position, which increases their speed
1420
by around 30%. The routines aim for only millisecond precision, while
15-
deflection only makes a difference of a couple of microseconds.
21+
deflection only makes a difference of microseconds.

* You can now subtract a NumPy array of floating point TT days from a
