Description

In August 2013, 2005 WK4 was radar-imaged by the Deep Space Network dish at Goldstone Observatory, United States,[7] and had been observed previously at Arecibo Observatory in July 2012 (this was not a close approach though).[8]

Physical characteristics

2005 WK4 measures approximately 250 meters in diameter, and has a rotation period of 2.595 hours.[3][4][a] Its spectral type is that of an Sk-subtype, which transitions from the stony S-type to the uncommon K-type asteroids.[6]
