No. The largest object in the asteroid belt is Ceres. Ida is much smaller.
Dactyl is a moon of the asteroid Ida located in the asteroid belt.
Earthโs Moon is far from the Astroid belt. However, the main belt astroid Ida has its own moon called Dactyl.
Eros and Ida, which are two large asteroids with masses of 66.9x1024kg and 42x1024kg respectively, are located within the asteroid belt, which is between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Yes, Ida, although it is an asteroid, has a moon called Dactyl
No, its an asteroid but it has a moon called Dactyl
The first confirmed case of an asteroid orbiting another asteroid is the asteroid Ida which is orbited by a smaller asteroid orbiting it called Dactyl; other asteroid moons have been found since.
Answer #2:for this answer,i added 58 kilometers + 19 kilometers and this=77kilometersYour answer is 77kilometers:) glad to help!
Yes. Afew asteroids have smaller asteroids orbiting them as moons. The best known case is the asteroid Ida and its moon Dactyl.
no they do not have any orbiting moons!!!!
There are a number of small asteroids that act as "moons" for somewhat larger asteroids. But only one asteroid, the dwarf planet Ceres, is as large as the larger moons of the major planets. In some cases, there are co-orbiting pairs of asteroids, one not vastly larger than the other. Notable Main Belt asteroids that have small moons are: * 243 Ida, an oblong asteroid about 59 km long, has a small moon named Dactyl (about 1.6 km diameter). * 22 Kalliope, about 235 km long and 80 km in radius has a relatively large moon, Linus (about 28 km). * 87 Sylvia, about 385 km long has two moons Sylvia I-Romulus and Sylvia II-Remus, each about 11 km in diameter.
Some asteroids do in fact have moons. The asteroid Ida has a moon, Dactyl, which was found when the space probe Galileo flew past on the way to Jupiter. Two asteroids that are roughly the same mass would be a binary asteroid, while a large disparity in mass means the smaller one is a moon of the larger one.
