	1036 ganymed (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Ganymed is about 32 km in diameter and is an S-type asteroid, meaning that it is highly reflective and composed of nickel-iron mixed with iron- and magnesium-silicates.
		One occultation of a star by Ganymed was observed from California on August 22, 1985.
		Obviously, not to be confused with Jupiter's moon Ganymede.

		Anyway, Ganymed is certainly one of the largest members of the planet-crossing asteroid population, and as such its origin is an interesting question.
		In this scenario, Ganymed would be a large fragment from a catastrophic break-up event, perhaps similar to the Koronis family member 243 Ida encountered in 1994 by the Galileo spacecraft (Davis et al.
		In this context, it is also interesting to note that Ganymed is so big that the non-gravitational Yarkovsky perturbation, which has been recently shown to cause a significant drift in the semimajor axis of km-sized main-belt asteroids (Farinella and Vokrouhlický 1999), cannot have affected its orbit much.

		We have studied numerically the dynamical evolution of 1036 Ganymed, the largest near-Earth asteroid, by integrating the orbits of tens of "clone" particles with similar initial conditions.
		The origin of Ganymed and a few other sizable Mars-crossing asteroids with similar orbital elements is an open problem, since the main-belt asteroid population in the neighbouring lower-eccentricity portion of the phase space is quite sparse.
		Although Ganymed's reflectance spectrum has some similarity to those of the ordinary chondrites, the Earth delivery efficiency from bodies with this type of orbits is low, because they are short-lived after they become Earth-crossing.

	Exploring The Planets - Near Earth Asteroids
		The orbits of near Earth asteroids are thought to be influenced by gravitational interactions with the Sun or terrestrial planets or by collisions with other bodies.
		he largest known near Earth asteroid is 1036 Ganymed with a diameter of nearly 41 kilometers (25.5 miles).
		Scientists are working to identify near Earth asteroids with diameters of 1 kilometer (0.6 mile) or more that may pose a danger of colliding with the Earth.

	Update for (1036) Ganymed - August 19, 1998
		the about 40 km small minor planet (1036) Ganymed is currently displaying a very favourable perihelion opposition show which makes it an easy-to-observe object.
		Ganymed is scheduled to occult the V=10.8 mag star ACT 63458 on the early morning (UT) of 1998 Aug 19 for observers in central Europe.
		The magnitude drop of this occultation will be around 0.7 mag, and the maximum duration is around 3 seconds (the asteroid is moving rather fast at 96.5"/h).

		The largest of these known within near-Earth space is 1036 Ganymed, which has an estimated diameter of 41 kilometers (about 25 miles).
		This 23-kilometer (14-mile) asteroid will be the next target for the Near-Earth Asteroid Rendezvous (NEAR) mission launched in early 1996.

		Ten asteroids have been classified as S-type: six Mars-crossers - 323, 1750, 3267, 4558, 7002 and 1994NL2 - and four NEAs - 1036, 1685, 4954 and 7480.
		Among these asteroids, one Mars-crosser, 4558 Janesick, and all four NEAs have already been observed by SMASS, and both classifications agree, as can be seen in Tables 3 and 4.
		The Mars-crossers 323 Brucia and 1750 Eckert, and the NEA 1036 Ganymed have been previously classified in the Tholen taxonomy (Tholen 1989) also as S-type asteroids.

		Regular expressions can be considered to be a generalized form of substrings.

		However, other characters become special and allow one to construct more general "substrings" to match.

		Approximately 250 NEAs have been found to date, probably only a few percent of their total population.
		The largest presently known is 1036 Ganymed, with an approximate diameter of 25.5 miles (41 kilometers).
		Estimates suggest at least a thousand NEAs may be large enough -- 0.6 mile (1 kilometer) or more in diameter -- to threaten Earth.

		Eros has a chance of approximately 5 percent of striking Earth, but not anytime soon.
		Eros is approximately 34 x 13 x 13 kilometers in size, and is the second largest of the known near-Earth asteroids; the largest is 1036 Ganymed, which is approximately 40 kilometers in diameter.
		Eros bears enormous impact scars from its 4 billion years in the main asteroid belt, and it may have lost much of its original mass and shape to cratering.

		Ganymed (homosexuality and/or younger partners?) fits as being seen or felt to be even more "dangerous" than Eros generally.
		That boy was Ganymede, a name which, in a corrupted form, gave us the English word catamite, "a young boy who is kept for the purpose of sodomy".
		1036 Ganymed has a mean diameter in the range between 30and 40 km, and as such is the largest NEA.
