20 Massalia is a stony asteroid and the parent body of the
Massalia family located in the inner region of the asteroid belt,
approximately 145 kilometers (90 miles) in diameter. Discovered
by Italian astronomer Annibale de Gasparis on 19 September 1852,
it was named for the Latin name of the French city of Marseille,
from which the independent discover Jean Chacornac sighted it the

an iconic symbol by its discoverer.

15 Eunomia is a very large asteroid located in the middle of the

and is estimated to contain approximately 1% of the total mass of
the entire asteroid belt. 

Key Facts and Discovery:

- Discovery: It was discovered on July 29, 1851, by the Italian
astronomer Annibale de Gasparis.

- Naming: Named after Eunomia, a Greek goddess (one of the Horae)

a group of S-type asteroids that likely originated from the same
parent body after a massive collision.

Deine Privatkopie der Folgen, die du nicht verlieren willst.

Podcast-Folgen verschwinden. Feeds werden auf die letzten Episoden gekürzt, Hoster räumen alte Dateien ab, Formate wechseln den Anbieter und lassen ihr Archiv zurück. Mit „Mein Archiv“ sichert podcast.de die Folgen deiner Podcasts für dich — angefangen bei den ältesten, denn die sind zuerst weg.

  • Deine gesicherten Folgen bleiben hörbar, auch wenn das Original offline geht.
  • Auch Folgen, die im heutigen Feed gar nicht mehr stehen — podcast.de kennt sie noch.
  • Herunterladen bleibt möglich, solange die Folge beim Podcaster liegt. Der zählt seine Abrufe wie bisher.
