| Appulses and occultations of SAO stars by Mercury - 1987-1995
While no readily observable occultations were found in the presentpredictions for 78 close approaches by Mercury to stars in theSmithsonian Astrophysical Observatory catalog (1966) over the periodJanuary 1, 1987-December 31, 1995, seven occultations of stars withvisual magnitudes of 7 or fainter are noted.
