Summary

Description
English: Astronomers have discovered a new satellite orbiting the main belt asteroid (130) Elektra — the smallest object visible in this image. The team, led by Bin Yang (ESO, Santiago, Chile), imaged it using the extreme adaptive optics instrument, SPHERE, installed on the Unit Telescope 3 of ESO’s Very Large Telescope at Cerro Paranal, Chile. This new, second moonlet of (130) Elektra is about 2 kilometres across and has been provisionally named S/2014 (130) 1, making (130) Elektra a triple system.
Русский: Астрономы открыли новый спутник, обращающийся вокруг астероида Главного пояса (130) Электра. Исследовательская группа под руководством Бин Яня (Bin Yang, ESO, Сантьяго, Чили) получила его изображение, использовав новейший адаптивно-оптический инструмент SPHERE на третьем «юните» -- Основном телескопе 3 в составе Очень Большого Телескопа ESO на Серро Паараналь в Чили. Новая, уже вторая по счету «луна» астероида (130) Электра, которая получила кодовое название S/2014 (130) 1, имеет поперечник около 2 километров.
