1710 Gothard, provisional designation 1941 UF, is a stony asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, about 8 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered by Hungarian astronomer György Kulin at the Konkoly Observatory in Budapest on 20 October 1941.[6]
The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.7–2.9 AU once every 3.54 years (1,292 days). It has a rotation period of 4.94 hours. The S-type asteroid has an albedo of 0.09 and 0.20, according to preliminary results from the NEOWISE survey and assumption made by the Light Curve Database project, respectively.[3][4]
The asteroid was named in memory of Hungarian amateur astronomer Jenő Gothard (1857–1909), who discovered the central star in the Ring Nebula (M57).[2]
