Named in honor of the Cornell University scientist Ann P. Harch, an expert in the design and execution of spacecraft camera sequencing and pointing commands. Ann played a major role in obtaining the first spacecraft images of (951) Gaspra and (243) Ida during the Galileo spacecraft flybys in Oct. 1991 and Aug. 1993. During the latter encounter, she was the first to note evidence for Ida’s moon, Dactyl. In addition, Ann was instrumental in the successful imaging of (253) Mathilde and (433) Eros during the NEAR spacecraft flybys in June 1997 and Dec. 1998. (M 34351) _ _.
