5-580: Yorp or YORP may refer to one of the following: 54509 YORP , an Earth co-orbital asteroid Yarkovsky–O'Keefe–Radzievskii–Paddack effect , a second-order variation on the Yarkovsky effect Youth Organization Registration Program, an initiative of the National Youth Commission (Philippines) Topics referred to by the same term [REDACTED] This disambiguation page lists articles associated with
10-585: Is an Earth co-orbital asteroid discovered on 3 August 2000 by the Lincoln Laboratory Near-Earth Asteroid Research ( LINEAR ) Team at Lincoln Laboratory Experimental Test Site in Socorro, New Mexico. Measurements of the rotation rate of this object provided the first observational evidence of the YORP effect , hence the name of the asteroid. The asteroid's rate of rotation is increasing at
15-457: The possibility that close encounters with the Earth have been the cause of the increased spin rate. On 2 January 2104, asteroid YORP will pass within 0.00530 AU (793,000 km; 493,000 mi) from Earth. YORP is the largest member of a candidate asteroid family , another member of which is 2017 FZ 2 , that would have been formed through shedding of fragments of YORP or the breakup of
20-400: The rate of (2.0 ± 0.2) × 10 deg/day which between 2001 and 2005 caused the asteroid to rotate about 250° further than its spin rate in 2001 would have predicted. Simulations of the asteroid suggest that it may reach a rotation period of ~20 seconds near the end of its expected lifetime, which has a 75% probability of happening within the next 35 million years. The simulations also ruled out
