1283 Komsomolia (
rotation period
96 hours of and measures approximately 30 kilometers (19 miles) in diameter.
Discovery
Komsomolia was discovered on 25 September 1925, by Soviet astronomer
Heidelberg Observatory on 10 October 1925.[2] Only the first discoverer is officially recognized.[2] The asteroid was first observed as A902 TE at Heidelberg in October 1902.[3]
Orbit and classification
Komsomolia is a non-
hierarchical clustering method to its proper orbital elements.[4] It orbits the Sun in the outer main-belt at a distance of 2.5–3.9 AU once every 5 years and 8 months (2,075 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.22 and an inclination of 9° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] The body's observation arc begins at Heidelberg in October 1902, almost 23 years prior to its official discovery observation.[3]

M.P.C. 838).[13]
Physical characteristics
Komsomolia has been characterized as a metallic M-type asteroid by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE).[7] The Asteroid Lightcurve Database assumes it to be a carbonaceous C-type asteroid.[5]
Rotation period
In December 2006, a fragmentary rotational
U=1+).[11]
Diameter and albedo
According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite
albedo between 0.071 and 0.1856.[6][7][8][9][10] The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link derives an albedo of 0.1703 and a diameter of 26.78 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 10.4.[5]
