About Irene

Discovered in 1851 by John Russell Hind. IAU designation: 14 Irene. Estimated diameter: 152 km. Absolute magnitude H: 6.55.

Asteroide tipo S do cinturao medio.

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.
