It belongs to the group of Apollo asteroids and measures about 5 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered by German astronomer Cuno Hoffmeister at Boyden Observatory in Bloemfontein, South Africa, on 5 June 1959.The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 0.7–3.2 AU once every 2 years and 9 months (1,019 days). Its orbit shows an exceptionally high eccentricity of 0.63 and an inclination of 7 degrees from the plane of the ecliptic. It is also a Mars- and Venus-crosser. The asteroid has an Earth minimum orbital intersection distance of 0.0287 AU (4,290,000 km) and approaches the Earth to within 40 million kilometers six times in the 21st century. On 20 May 2012, it made its closest Earth approach at a distance of 0.122 AU (18,000,000 km). It will not make a closer approach until 2093 when it will pass Earth at 0.084 AU (13,000,000 km).Several photometric light-curve analysis gave a rotation period of 3.56 hours with a high brightness amplitude between 0.47 and 0.83 in magnitude, indicating that the body has a non-spheroidal shape. In December 2000, Cuno was analysed by radar to determine its shape. The resultant images are lacking in detail, but indicate a rough sphere with some kind of concave depression 1–2 km in diameter.The stony S-type asteroid, with its reflective surface composed of a mixture different silicates, nickel and iron, is classified as a Sq-subtype on the SMASS taxonomic scheme. According to the surveys carried out by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and the NEOWISE mission of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, the asteroid has an albedo of 0.10 to 0.11, with a diameter between 5.4 and 5.6 kilometers, while the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for the stony asteroid of 0.20 and calculates a diameter of 3.9 kilometer, as the higher the body's albedo (reflectivity), the lower its diameter, for a given absolute magnitude (brightness).The minor planet was named after the its discoverer, Cuno Hoffmeister, following the established practice to name near-Earth asteroids with a four-letter masculine name. Cuno Hoffmeister is also honored by the minor planet 1726 Hoffmeister."@en }
