[2] This asteroid is orbiting 3.01 AU with a period of 5.22 years and an eccentricity of 0.119.
[1] This is a member of the dynamic Eos family of asteroids that most likely formed as the result of a collisional breakup of a parent body.
[3] Photometric observations made during 2008 were used to produce a light curve of 742 Edisona showing a rotation period of 18.52±0.01 with a brightness variation of 0.30±0.01 in magnitude.
[4] It spans a girth of approximately 45.6 km.
