2094 Magnitka (
Flora asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 12 October 1971, at and by the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in Nauchnyj, on the Crimean peninsula.[12] The discovery has not been attributed to an observing astronomer. It was later named for the city of Magnitogorsk.[2]
Orbit and classification
Magnitka is a member of the
Turku Observatory, extending the body's observation arc by 30 years prior to its official discovery observation.[12]
