Scientific paper

The mathematical theory of the nutation of Mars is derived by classical
rigid-body dynamics. The effect of nutation is to produce a 26-m maximum
horizontal amplitude oscillation (at the surface of Mars) with a period
of half a Martian year. This effect should be detectable in the
Viking-Lander data.
