554 Peraga
Minor planet orbiting the Sun
554 Peraga is a minor planet orbiting the Sun that was discovered by German astronomer Paul Götz on January 8, 1905, from Heidelberg.
13-cm radar observations of this asteroid from the Arecibo Observatory between 1980 and 1985 were used to produce a diameter estimate of 101 km.[3]
