Comments.
Data are deduced from the photometric observations
of the mutual occultations and eclipses made
during the international campaign in 2021.
The description of these astrometric data
is given in the relevant article (see Reference).
The coordinates of the observatories are given below.
The second group of the data is presented in this item.
The "O-C' are given with respect of the theory by V.Lainey
(Lainey, V., Arlot, J. E., Karatekin, O., van Hoolst, T. 2009.
Nature. V. 459. P 957.)
The first group of the data see in the item jg0067 of the NSDC.

Format.
1. Observatory code see the table above.
2. The type of the phenomenon (eclipse or occultation) including the
satellite numbers. The type of phenomenon is coded as n_a o n_p
or n_a e n_p for a mutual occultation or eclipse, respectively.
Here $n_a$ is the number of the occulting or eclipsing satellite
and $n_p$ is the number of the occulted or eclipsed satellite.
3. Year of observation
4. Month of observation
5. Day of observation
6. Hour of the astrometric data (UTC)
7. Minute of the astrometric data (UTC)
8. Seconde of the astrometric data with decimals (UTC)
9. Position angle A in degrees (topocentric for mutual occultation
or heliocentric for mutual eclipse)
10. Precision of apparent position along the apparent relative trajectory
of the satellite as obtained with the least-square method, in arcseconds
11. O-C along the apparent relative trajectory, in arcseconds.
12. Flag R assigned showing the reason why only one coordinate was determined:
R=0 - there is no doubt about the results;
R=1 - astrometric results are doubtful.
