Scientific paper

Examples of lightcurve observations of several objects are presented
where non-principal-axis rotation, or tumbling, can be expected. Some of
these observations are shown to be suggestive of this motion. It is
noted that this possibility should be considered when analyzing
observations of small slowly rotating asteroids.
