The following improved orbital elements, by S. Nakano, are from 48 observations 2005 to 2010. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.71 arc second. Following additinal identification was included: PK09W50J C2005 02 09.26091 09 58 01.47 +34 08 03.1 5C8427A 20.2 Rr G96 PK09W50J C2005 02 09.26522 09 58 01.26 +34 08 04.8 5C8427A 20.1 Rr G96 PK09W50J C2005 02 09.26952 09 58 01.01 +34 08 06.7 5C8427A 19.7 Rr G96 PK09W50J C2005 02 09.27383 09 58 00.81 +34 08 08.4 5C8427A 19.6 Rr G96 Epoch = 2010 Mar. 25.0 TT T = 2010 Mar. 12.40905 +/- 0.00057 (m.e.)
