Scientific paper

It is shown that if the second harmonic in the series development of the
earth's gravitational potential (J2) is derived from optical satellite
tracking data, systematic errors on the order of delta-J2/J2
approximately equal to 10 to the minus seventh power can be predicted,
because of zonal errors in the astrometric coordinate systems used.
