:The change is appropriate. 1890 is a rounded version for 1892. [[F. R. Stephenson]], IIRC, used the range 1750-1890 when he selected 1820 as the vertex of his parabolic representation of [[Delta T]], whereas the actual observations used by [[Simon Newcomb]], on which he based his [[Newcomb's Tables of the Sun|tables]], which form the basis of [[Ephemeris Time]], end in 1892, not 1890. — [[User:Joe Kress|Joe Kress]] 07:54, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
