Abstract
Astrometric positions of the first eight Saturnian satellites obtained from 138 photographic plates taken in 30 nights:in the years 1982 to 1988 are p resented. All positions are compared with those calculated by the theory TA SS1.7 (Vienne & Duriez, 1998). The observed minus calculated residuals give rise to standard deviations smaller than 0." 3.
