Asteroid
The dwarf planet Ceres is by far the largest asteroid, with a diameter of . The next largest are 4 Vesta and 2 Pallas, both with diameters of just over . Vesta is the only main-belt asteroid that can, on occasion, be visible to the naked eye. On some rare occasions, a near-Earth asteroid may briefly become visible without technical aid; see 99942 Apophis.
3963 Paradzhanov
"Paradzhanov" is a member of the Nysa family (), the asteroid belt's largest asteroid family. The low-inclination family is located in the inner main-belt and named after 44 Nysa. It is better described as the "Nysa-Polana complex" because it consists of two albedo-groups and at least three collisional families: Nysa, Polana, Eulalia, named after 142 Polana and 495 Eulalia. These are difficult to distinguish as they are dynamically overlapping with different but varying albedos. "Paradzhanov" has a relatively high albedo "(see below)" which places it into the stony Nysian subgroup of the "Nysa-Polana complex".
