Scientific paper

A simple mathematical determination of the rotation period of the 1990 Great White Spot on Saturn is given as an example of a useful type of nonobserving project. The data were 28 of my personal, visual central-meridian transits. The observed longitudes can be fitted well with two least-squares regression lines, implying an acceleration on or near 1990 Oct. 24. The reduced period of rotation was 10h 13m 59.3s +/- 2.9s for the interval 1990 Oct. 04-24 and 10h 13m 29.5s +/- 2.6s for the interval 1990 Oct. 24-Nov. 20.
