abs_magnitude = 13.19999 Wiles is a C-type
main belt asteroid . It orbits theSun every 4.8 years.It was discovered by C. J. van Houten, I. van Houten-Groeneveld and T. Gehrels on
September 29 ,1973 . Given the provisional designation 4196 T-2, it was renamed 9999 Wiles in honour ofAndrew J. Wiles , who provedFermat's last theorem . ["MPC 34356" Minor Planet Center]References
