Scientific paper

The ALPO Jupiter Section received 688 visual and 12 photoelectric timings of the eclipses of Jupiter's Galilean satellites for the 1987/88 apparition. For each satellite, eclipse disappearance and reappearance timings were adjusted for telescope aperture and combined for comparison with the E-2 Ephemeris. Io's observed position fit the ephemeris quite well, but events for Europa and Ganymede tended to be significantly earlier than predicted. The discrepancy for Europa was confirmed by photoelectric timings.
