Description
The last catalogue of observations (Strugnell & Taylor, 1990A&AS...83..289S) includes about 51000 observations (over 3500 nights) of Saturnian satellites from 1874 to 1989. Since 1989, many observations have been published, often in different format, specific to the publication. This new catalogue of observations of the eight major satellites of Saturn includes the observations of Strugnell & Taylor (1990A&AS...83..289S), many other published since 1989 and also old observations forgotten in the previous catalogue. All those observations are tabulated in the consistent format. We precise, for each observation, the corrections applied for reduction like refraction, aberration or phase effects. Furthermore, when it was possible, instrument and catalogue are also indicated. The new catalogue presents more than 130000 observations (over 6000 nights) of the eight major satellites of Saturn from 1874 to 2007.
