About Arete

IAU designation: 197 Arete. Estimated diameter: 42.22 km. Absolute magnitude H: 9.55.

Asteroide do cinturao principal.

Limitation

Osculating elements are from epoch 2461000.5 JD. Keplerian propagation ignores perturbations (especially Jupiter for belt asteroids). For precision beyond months, consult JPL Horizons.
