What is the astronomical designation of the asteroid Pandora?

The astronomical designation of the asteroid Pandora is 55 Pandora.

55 Pandora is a large main-belt asteroid orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter. It was discovered by the American astronomer George Mary Searle on September Pandora? Actually discovered by George Mary Searle at Albany, New York, in 1858. Need exact date maybe 1858. Avoid bad. Let's revise.

The asteroid was discovered in 1858 and received the name Pandora after the figure from Greek mythology. It is unrelated to Pandora, the small moon of Saturn, although both bodies share the same mythological name.

Astronomers classify 55 Pandora as an S-type asteroid, a category generally associated with stony, silicate-rich material. Its orbit lies in the main asteroid belt, and observations of its brightness show that it rotates rather than presenting a permanently fixed face to Earth.

Numbered designations are assigned to minor planets in discovery order once their orbits are sufficiently established. Thus “55” identifies its place among early numbered asteroids, while “Pandora” is its official name. The designation is not a moon designation and should not be confused with Saturn’s moon Pandora.
