Scientific paper
The papers consider the orbits, physical properties, composition, origin, and evolution of the natural satellites of the solar system from the viewpoint of celestial mechanics. Topics include a computer technique for developing analytic expressions for the coordinates and partial derivatives of Jupiter's Galilean satellites, a theory of the motion of the Galilean satellites, a comparison between photographic observations of the positions of the Galilean satellites and Sampson's tables, astrolabe observations of several transits of the Galilean satellites, the orbital resonance among the Galilean satellites, the motion of the Martian satellites from ground-based observations and Mariner-9 TV data, and a general method for predicting eclipses of natural planetary satellites. Individual items are announced in this issue.
