(559717) Brodyjanos Main-belt Asteroid

Discovered on 31 August 2011 by K. Sárneczky S. Kürti at Piszkés-tető.

János Bródy (b. 1946) is a Hungarian singer songwriter and lyricist whose poetic, metaphor rich texts and subtle hidden messages made him a defining voice of Hungary’s beat era. His socially aware, quietly courageous songs and his work with Illés and Fonográf left a lasting influence on modern Hungarian music.Naming citation (WGSBN Bull. 6, #10, 11), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
