Category:Discoveries by astronomer

See also: Category:Discoverers of astronomical objects
See also: Category:Astronomical discoveries by institution

This is a category for discoveries by specific amateur or professional astronomers. For asteroid discoveries, the assigned alphabetic name should be used as the sortkey. Otherwise, the asteroid's provisional designation should be used. For example:

  • 24899 Dominiona would use [[Category:Discoveries by Christopher Aikman|Dominiona]].
  • (7641) 1986 TT6 would use [[Category:Discoveries by Milan Antal|1986 TT6]].
  • 2007 WD5 would simply use [[Category:Discoveries by Andrea Boattini|2007 WD5]].
