Galilean Satellites: Eclipses

Scientific paper

The A.L.P.O. Jupiter Section received 696 visual timings of the eclipses of Jupiter's four Galilean satellites from 70 observers for the 1992/93 apparition. For each satellite, eclipse visual disappearance timings were adjusted for telescope aperture and were then combined for comparison with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's "E-2" Ephemeris. Io appeared to be about 5 seconds, and Europa about 18 seconds, "early" in their orbits; both statistically significant differences. The observed position of Ganymede fitted the ephemeris well.
