List of exceptional asteroids

The following is a collection of lists of exceptional asteroids in the Solar System. For the purposes of this article, "asteroid" refers to minor planets out to the orbit of Neptune, which includes the likely dwarf planet Ceres, the Jupiter trojans and the centaurs. For a complete list of minor planets in numerical order, see List of minor planets. Asteroids are given a unique sequential identifying number once their orbit is precisely determined. Prior to this, they are known only by their systematic name or provisional designation, such as 1950 DA.
