9524 O'Rourke , provisionally designated 1981 EJ5 , is an asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt , approximately 3 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on 2 March 1981, by American astronomer Schelte Bus at the Siding Spring Observatory in New South Wales, Australia. The asteroid was named after Laurence O'Rourke , a researcher at the European Space Astronomy Centre .[2]
Orbit and classification [ edit ]
O'Rourke orbits the Sun in the inner main-belt at a distance of 1.7–2.7 AU eccentricity of 0.23 and an inclination of 5° with respect to the ecliptic .[1] 1975 NU at Crimea–Nauchnij in 1975, extending the asteroid's observation arc by 6 years prior to its official discovery observation.[2]
Physical characteristics [ edit ]
According to the survey carried out by NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, the asteroid measures 2.920 kilometers in diameter and its surface has an albedo of 0.273.[3]
As of 2017, O'Rourke ' s spectral type , as well as its rotation period and shape remain unknown.[1] [4]
This minor planet was named after Laurence O'Rourke (born 1970), a researcher at the European Space Astronomy Centre in Madrid, Spain, and a coordinator of ESA's Rosetta [2] [5] Minor Planet Center on 12 July 2014 (M.P.C. 89078[6]
