The total number of additional bodies in a chart is limited to
10. A typical use of this feature is to construct family charts,
where the asteroids named like the family members are added to a
normal chart. Currently there are about 17'620 asteroids named
officially by the IAU (International Astronomical Union). This
list is updated from

periodically. It is not (yet) possible to buy a name in the

names of the numbered minor planets. It was last updated on 2013
