The new sixth edition of the Dictionary of Minor Planet Names, which is the IAU?s official reference work for the field, now covers more than 17,000 named minor planets. In addition to being of practical value for identification purposes, the Dictionary of Minor Planet Names provides authoritative information on the basis of the rich and colorful variety of ingenious names, from heavenly goddesses to artists, from scientists to Nobel laureates, from historical or political figures to ordinary women and men, from mountains to buildings, as well as a variety of compound terms and curiosities. This sixth edition of the Dictionary of Minor Planet Names has grown by more than 7,000 entries compared to the fifth edition and by more than 2,000 compared to the fifth edition, including its two addenda published in 2006 and 2009. In addition, there are many  corrections, revisions and updates to the entries published in earlier editions. This work is an abundant source of information for anyone interested in minor planets and who enjoys reading about the people and things minor planets commemorate. 517 3 $aPrepared on Behalf of Commission 20 Under the Auspices of the International Astronomical Union 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aSpace sciences 606 $aPlanetology 606 $aGeophysics 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22030 606 $aPlanetology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G18010 606 $aGeophysics and Environmental Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P32000 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aSpace sciences. 615 0$aPlanetology. 615 0$aGeophysics. 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 14$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aSpace Sciences (including Extraterrestrial Physics, Space Exploration and Astronautics). 615 24$aPlanetology. 615 24$aGeophysics and Environmental Physics. 615 24$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 676 $a523.44/03 676 $a523.4403 700 $aSchmadel$b Lutz D$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792267 712 02$aInternational Astronomical Union. 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807201903321 996 $aDictionary of Minor Planet Names$91771534 997 $aUNINA
