The parallax and astrometric orbit of Mu CassiopeiaeA total of 371 photographic plates were made of the binary Mu Cassiopeia (Mu Cas) region with a 76 cm refractor. An astrometric orbit of nearly 22.09 yr was calculated, accompanied by an eccentricity of close to 0.58 and a semimajor axis close to 0.19 arcsec. The absolute magnitude was approximately 5.83 and the radial velocity 164 km/sec.
