Scientific paper

A report is presented of the occultation of 28 Sagittarii by Titan on 1989 July 3. Visual, video and photoelectric observations, some depicting a central flash event, are reported. The optical characteristics of Titan's upper atmosphere (300-700km altitude) are derived. It is postulated that the distribution of light in the central flash pattern exhibits dispersion as a function of wavelength, and that one unfiltered CCD video recording contains features indicative of absorption by methane. An upper limit for the diameter of 28 Sgr is determined.
