(7335) 1989 JA, provisional designation 1989 JA, is an stony asteroid of the Apollo group, classified as near-Earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid, approximately 1 kilometer in diameter. It was discovered on 1 May 1989, by American astronomer Eleanor Helin at the U.S. Palomar Observatory in California.[8]

Orbit and classification

The S-type asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 0.9–2.6 AU once every 2 years and 4 months (861 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.98 and an inclination of 37° with respect to the ecliptic.[1] The first observation was made at the discovering observatory in April 1989, extending the asteroid's observation arc by 1 month prior to its discovery observation.[8] It has a minimum orbital intersection distance to Earth of 0.0001 AU (15,000 km) which corresponds to 0.2 lunar distances.[1]

Physical characteristics

During its discovery in May 1989, radiometric observations for this asteroid at Arecibo and Goldstone Observatory rendered a rotation period of 12 hours (U=n.a.).[9] According to the survey carried out by the NEOWISE mission of NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, the asteroid measures 0.93 kilometers in diameter and its surface has a high albedo of 0.31–0.32,[5][4][6] while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for stony asteroids of 0.20 and calculates a diameter of 1.18 kilometers, based on an absolute magnitude of 17.0.[3]

Naming

As of 2019, 1989 JA remains unnamed.[8]
