This is the only Aten object we have observed and no spectral information was available before for this asteroid. The spectrum we obtained (Fig. 1) shows the typical trend of the objects belonging to the S-class, but it is different from the spectra of OC assemblages.

The estimated diameter of this asteroid is about 5 km and its rotational period P_syn = 18 (Hoffmann et al., 1993).
