Nakano Note (Nakano wa Kangaeru noda) NK 3340 C/2016 VZ18 (PANSTARRS)
The following improved orbital elements, S. Nakano, are from 86 observations 2016 Oct. 8 to 2017 Jan. 27. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.32 arc second. Epoch = 2017 Feb. 16.0 TT T = 2017 Mar. 7.37987 +/- 0.00009 (m.e.)
