Orbital Elements The following improved orbital elements by Kenji Muraoka, are from 215 observations 1978 Mar. 6 to 2001 Mar. 26, perturbations by 9 Plantes, Moon and 5 minor planets were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.51 arc seconds. Epoch = 2001 Apr. 1.0 TT JDT = 2452000.5 T = 2001 Mar. 23.32416 +/- 0.00034 (m.e.)
