23577

23577 is a minor planet in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It is a main-belt asteroid and was discovered on May 13, 1998, by David C. Jewitt at Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii. The asteroid's diameter is estimated to be around 5-10 kilometers.

The astronomical symbol for the asteroid is an empty square' ', meaning it has not been official assigned an alphanumeric or a symbol. Since its discovery, 23577 has been the subject of several studies. One of the notable aspects of this asteroid is its distance from the Sun. 23577 has a semi-major axis of about 3.01 astronomical units (AU), which means it is relatively close to the Sun but still in the asteroid belt.

Astronomers have also studied the orbital characteristics of this asteroid. No significant orbital elements have been particularly noted. Further studies might be necessary to determine the asteroid's magnitude or its phasing as it orbits the Sun.
