Determination of the day of the week *104804 + 4, "n" = 104804 and "k" = 4 which implies that August 13, 2009 is the fourth day into the 104805th week since 01/01/0001. 13 August 2009 is Thursday; therefore, the first day of the week must be Monday, and it is concluded that the first day 01/01/0001 of the calendar is "Monday". Based on this, the remainder of the ratio "Base/7", defined above as "k", decides what day of the week it is. If "k" = 0, it's Monday, "k" = 1, it's Tuesday, etc. Determination of the day of the week The determination of the day
IAU Circular Astronomical Telegrams/Minor Planet Center Computer Service. Most of the announcement circulars published at Cambridge, Copenhagen, and Uccle from 1895 to the present day are available for viewing via the CBAT website. IAU Circular The International Astronomical Union Circulars (IAUCs) are notices that give information about astronomical phenomena. IAUCs are issued by the International Astronomical Union's Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams (CBAT) at irregular intervals for the discovery and follow-up information regarding such objects as planetary satellites, novae, supernovae, and comets. The first series of IAUCs was published at Uccle during 1920–1922 when the IAU's first CBAT was located there; the
