From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Juno clump is a probable main-belt asteroid family that share similar orbital elements to 3 Juno.
3 Juno is a large asteroid with a mean diameter of about 235 km, but the remaining bodies are all small. (32326) 2000 QO62, the brightest of those clearly in the visible clump would have a diameter of about 6 km, given the same albedo as 3 Juno. This indicates that it is probably a so-called cratering family composed of ejecta from impacts on 3 Juno.
The HCM analysis by (Zappalà 1995) determined several likely core members, whose proper elements lie in the approximate ranges
At the present epoch, the range of osculating orbital elements of these core members is
