The close approaches of the minor planet Eunomia to the stars SAO 97745, 97645, and 97646 The accuracy of predictions of occultations of minor planets has beenchecked. Eunomia showed close approaches to the stars SAO 97745, 97645,and 97646 as photographed from Observatoire de Haute Provence.Observations of this kind could improve the planetary theories and,eventually, lead to reliable asteroid diameters.
