249384E

249384E is a minor planet in the outer region of the asteroid belt, located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was discovered on October 12, 2007, by astronomers at the Palomar Observatory in California. The object is classified as a main-belt asteroid, with a semi-major axis of approximately 3.1 astronomical units (AU), indicating its position within the asteroid belt.

The asteroid has an estimated diameter of about 2 kilometers, based on its absolute magnitude of 16.5. Its orbital period is roughly 5.5 Earth years, and its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.15, which is relatively low for main-belt asteroids. The orbital inclination of 249384E is about 10 degrees, which is typical for asteroids in the inner region of the main belt.

The spectral classification of 249384E is X-type, which suggests a primitive composition, possibly including carbonaceous materials. This classification is based on its reflectance spectrum, which shows a featureless, reddish slope, characteristic of X-type asteroids. The origin of X-type asteroids is still a topic of ongoing research, but they are believed to be remnants from the early solar system that have not undergone significant differentiation.

249384E does not have any known moons or companions, and its rotation period is not yet determined. The asteroid's physical properties, such as its shape and surface features, remain unknown due to the limited data available. Future observations and studies may provide more insights into the nature of this minor planet.
