Orbital Elements The following improved orbital elements by Kenji Muraoka, are from 349 observations 1983 to 1998, including 9 Planets, Moon and 5 minor planets perturbations and non-gravitational effect of style II. The mean residual is +/- 0.83 arc seconds. Epoch = 1999 May 22.0 TT JDT = 2451320.5 T = 1999 May 6.10348 +/- 0.00035 (m.e.)
