15773

15773 is a minor planet in the asteroid belt, located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was discovered on September 11, 1993, by astronomers Carolyn S. Shoemaker and David H. Levy at the Palomar Observatory in California, United States. The asteroid is named after the year of its discovery, 1993.

15773 has an estimated diameter of approximately 10 kilometers. Its orbit has a semi-major axis of about 2.7 astronomical units (AU), with an eccentricity of 0.13 and an inclination of 10.5 degrees relative to the ecliptic plane. The asteroid completes one orbit around the Sun approximately every 4.5 Earth years.

The spectral type of 15773 is classified as S-type, indicating that it has a stony composition. This classification is based on its reflectance spectrum, which is similar to that of other stony asteroids in the asteroid belt.

As of the latest available data, 15773 has not been visited by any spacecraft, and its physical characteristics, such as its shape and rotation period, remain unknown. However, ongoing observations and studies continue to provide valuable insights into the properties and behavior of minor planets in the solar system.
