Minor planet and Koronis family asteroid
761 Brendelia is a minor planet orbiting the Sun that was discovered by German astronomer Franz Kaiser on September 8, 1913, and named after Otto Rudolf Martin Brendel . It is orbiting at a distance of AU orbital eccentricity of 0.065297. The orbital plane is inclined at an angle of 2.16° to the plane of the ecliptic .[ 1]
This is a member of the dynamic Koronis family of asteroids that most likely formed as the result of a collisional breakup of a parent body.[ 3] ± 0.02 h[ 2]
