 Puzzling rotation of asteroid 288 Glauke   (Site not responding. Last check: )

 NEAR Fast Approaching Asteroid 253 Mathilde   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Since then ground-based telescopes have been used to determine, among other things, that Mathilde is a C-type asteroid and is one of the darkest objects in the solar system since it reflects only 4 percent of the light falling on it.
It has been determined that Mathilde is approximately 38 miles (61 kilometers) across and has an amazingly slow rotation rate (17.4 days), which intrigues scientists since only two asteroids, 288 Glauke and 1220 Clocus, have longer rotation periods.
When NEAR encounters Mathilde it will be roughly 2.0 astronomical units from the sun and 2.2 AU from the Earth (AU=the mean distance between the Earth and sun).
