Template:Mp (provisional designation Template:Mp) is a stony asteroid, classified as near-Earth object of the Apollo group and potentially hazardous asteroid, approximately 1 kilometer in diameter. It was discovered on 24 June 1998, by the LINEAR survey at the Lincoln Laboratory's Experimental Test Site in Socorro, New Mexico.[1]
Description
Template:Mp orbits the Sun at a distance of 0.9–3.9 AU once every 3 years and 9 months (1,366 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.62 and an inclination of 2° with respect to the ecliptic.[2] It is also a Mars-crossing asteroid.
Shortly after its discovery, Template:Mp was imaged by radar at Goldstone and Arecibo.[3]
The study showed that the asteroid has a rotation period of 15 hours, and a shape that is roughly spherical, with some steep protrusions and large craters.[4][5][6]
On 24 August 2013 it passed at a distance of 21.9 Lunar distances.[2] It was hoped to be observed by Goldstone radar.[7]
Numbering and naming
This minor planet was numbered by the Minor Planet Center on 16 February 2003.[8] As of 2018, it has not been named.[1]
