(589887) Fellnerjakab Outer Main-belt Asteroid

Discovered on 31 October 2010 by Z. Kuli K. Sárneczky at Piszkesteto.

Jakab Fellner (1722–1780) was a Moravian-born Hungarian architect and one of the most outstanding masters of late Baroque architecture. One of his most important works is the design of the University of Eger building, which has an observatory in its 54-metre-high tower. The instruments of the observatory, founded in 1776, are still largely on display.Naming citation (WGSBN Bull. 4, #15, 12), IAU / Minor Planet Center, via NASA/JPL
