semi-major axis of 3.14 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.11 and an inclination of 14° with respect to the ecliptic.[2]

The body's

Heidelberg Observatory in March 1933, or 41 years prior to its official discovery observation at Nauchnij.[1]

Physical characteristics

Maresjev is an assumed carbonaceous C-type asteroid.[3]

Rotation period

In September 2007, a fragmentary rotational

U=1).[9] As of 2018, no secure period has been obtained.[3]

Diameter and albedo

According to the surveys carried out by the Japanese

albedo between 0.0568 and 0.11.[5][6][7][8]

The Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes an albedo of 0.0580 and calculates a diameter of 28.96 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 11.4.[3]

Naming

This

fighter ace. His story served as a basis for the novel Story about a True Man (also translated as Story of a Real Man) by Boris Polevoy, which became a popular Russian book that was eventually made into an opera. It was first published in English in 1952, and was reprinted in 1970.[1][10]

The official naming citation was published by the

M.P.C. 5285).[11]
