Scientific paper

The orbits of 222 non-Antarctic ordinary chondrites have been estimated using the 'isotopic' method. It is shown that the aphelia of about 74 percent of the chondrites are concentrated at distances not more than about 2-2.5 AU from the sun, and the eccentricities of about 83 percent of the orbits are less than 0.5. Only 11 percent of the chondrites possessed orbits with an aphelion q' greater than 4 AU and an eccentricity exceeding 0.6.
