New IAU-named asteroids

(Updated: 2025-07-01)

A comprehensive list of the current IAU-named asteroids (25,399).

The WG Small Bodies Nomenclature (WGSBN) is responsible for the naming, and every few weeks or so, a bulletin is issued with the several new namings.  The JPL Small-Body Database Browser (SBDB) follows usually a couple days later and updates their records, of which then is reflected in the JPL Horizons System.  There may be delays in this process, but usually it’s within a few days.

You can access the objects at JPL and MPC with the name, the SPK-ID, MPC No., or click on the links. As each new bulletin is issued, I’ll provide these four PDFs for those astrologers who anticipate the new namings.
