Scientific paper

This paper analyzes the effect of optical refraction in the earth's atmosphere on the accuracy of astronometric measurements, and presents the results of calculations that were used to investigate the accuracy with which the orbits of artificial satellites are reconstructed from the data of goniometric observations. It is shown that, in a number of cases, neglecting the effect of refraction parallax results in fundamental errors in the character of the reconstructed trajectories.
