Description

This asteroid was observed while imaging the Deer Lick Group of galaxies. The data was analyzed by Marco Micheli of the ESA. Thanks Marco.

Hungarias are often mistaken for Near Earth Objects (NEOs) because they are at the very inner edge of the main belt, so their apparent speed is often faster than a typical main belter. These observations are being submitted to the Minor Planet Center. Here is the reported data.
