Scientific paper

Eclipses of Saturn's eight satellite Iapetus for 1993 are predicted using two sets of orbital elements of the satellite. The events will occur on May 1-2 and July 20-21, 1993. It is shown that the duration and magnitude drop especially for the ring eclipse of July 20-21 are sensitive to the difference of the orbital elements. Therefore photometric observations of the events are important in order to study the orbit of the satellite.
