Asteroid
Asteroids are minor planets, especially those of the inner Solar System.

Asteroid belt
The asteroid belt is the circumstellar disc in the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Asteroid belt · See more »
Asteroid spectral types
An asteroid spectral type is assigned to asteroids based on their emission spectrum, color, and sometimes albedo (reflectivity).
New!!: 1727 Mette and Asteroid spectral types · See more »
Astronomical unit
The astronomical unit (symbol: au, ua, or AU) is a unit of length, roughly the distance from Earth to the Sun.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Astronomical unit · See more »
Binary asteroid
A binary asteroid is a system of two asteroids orbiting their common barycenter.

Boyden Observatory
Boyden Observatory is an astronomical research observatory and science education centre located in Maselspoort, north-east of the city of Bloemfontein in Free State, South Africa.

Degree (angle)
A degree (in full, a degree of arc, arc degree, or arcdegree), usually denoted by ° (the degree symbol), is a measurement of a plane angle, defined so that a full rotation is 360 degrees.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Degree (angle) · See more »
Ecliptic
The ecliptic is the circular path on the celestial sphere that the Sun follows over the course of a year; it is the basis of the ecliptic coordinate system.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Ecliptic · See more »
Geneva Observatory
The Geneva Observatory (Observatoire de Genève, Observatorium von Genf) is an astronomical observatory at Sauverny (CH) in the municipality of Versoix, Canton of Geneva, in Switzerland.

Goethe Link Observatory
The Goethe Link Observatory, observatory code 760, is an astronomical observatory near Brooklyn, Indiana, United States.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Goethe Link Observatory · See more »
Hour
An hour (symbol: h; also abbreviated hr.) is a unit of time conventionally reckoned as of a day and scientifically reckoned as 3,599–3,601 seconds, depending on conditions.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Hour · See more »
Hungaria asteroid
The Hungaria group is a dynamical group of asteroids in the asteroid belt.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Hungaria asteroid · See more »
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) is a federally funded research and development center and NASA field center in Pasadena, California, United States, with large portions of the campus in La Cañada Flintridge, California.

Julian day
Julian day is the continuous count of days since the beginning of the Julian Period and is used primarily by astronomers.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Julian day · See more »
Julian year (astronomy)
In astronomy, a Julian year (symbol: a) is a unit of measurement of time defined as exactly 365.25 days of SI seconds each.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Julian year (astronomy) · See more »
Kirkwood gap
A Kirkwood gap is a gap or dip in the distribution of the semi-major axes (or equivalently of the orbital periods) of the orbits of main-belt asteroids.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Kirkwood gap · See more »
Light curve
In astronomy, a light curve is a graph of light intensity of a celestial object or region, as a function of time.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Light curve · See more »
List of Mars-crossing minor planets
A Mars-crossing asteroid (MCA, also Mars-crosser, MC) is an asteroid whose orbit crosses that of Mars.

List of minor planet discoverers
This is a list of all astronomers who are credited by the Minor Planet Center (MPC) with the discovery of one or several minor planets.

Magnitude (astronomy)
In astronomy, magnitude is a logarithmic measure of the brightness of an object in a defined passband, often in the visible or infrared spectrum, but sometimes across all wavelengths.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Magnitude (astronomy) · See more »
Minor planet
A minor planet is an astronomical object in direct orbit around the Sun (or more broadly, any star with a planetary system) that is neither a planet nor exclusively classified as a comet.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Minor planet · See more »
Minor Planet Center
The Minor Planet Center (MPC) is the official worldwide organization in charge of collecting observational data for minor planets (such as asteroids and comets), calculating their orbits and publishing this information via the Minor Planet Circulars.

Minor-planet moon
A minor-planet moon is an astronomical object that orbits a minor planet as its natural satellite.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Minor-planet moon · See more »
Near-Earth object
A near-Earth object (NEO) is any small Solar System body whose orbit can bring it into proximity with Earth.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Near-Earth object · See more »
Observation arc
In observational astronomy, an observation arc (or arc length) is the time period between the first and most recent (last) observation, tracing the body's path.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Observation arc · See more »
Orbital eccentricity
The orbital eccentricity of an astronomical object is a parameter that determines the amount by which its orbit around another body deviates from a perfect circle.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Orbital eccentricity · See more »
Orbital inclination
Orbital inclination measures the tilt of an object's orbit around a celestial body.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Orbital inclination · See more »
Rotation period
In astronomy, the rotation period of a celestial object is the time that it takes to complete one revolution around its axis of rotation relative to the background stars.
New!!: 1727 Mette and Rotation period · See more »
S-type asteroid
S-type asteroids are asteroids with a spectral type that is indicative of a silicaceous (i.e. stony) mineralogical composition, hence the name.
