Main-belt Asteroid discovered onOctober 8 ,1953 by theIndiana Asteroid Program atGoethe Link Observatory ,Brooklyn, Indiana . The name honors astronomerEdward C. Olson of the University of Illinois whose observations demonstrated how the outer layers of mass-gaining stars are distorted, and how angular momentum from the mass-transfer process can spin stars up close to the stability limit.External links
