Named in honor of Daniel D. Durda, who has studied the generation and evolution of dust from and the size distribution of minor planets. As a member of the Galileo imaging team, he has carried out fragmentation studies of minor planets and a detailed analysis of the formation of their satellites — in particular, of (243) Ida’s moon Dactyl. An avid pilot, he is also a noted astronomical artist whose paintings are inspired by his scientific work. (M 32345) _ _.
