Milan Antal (1935–1999) was a Slovak astronomer.
[2][3][4][5] While working at Skalnaté Pleso Observatory and at the Toruń Centre for Astronomy from 1971–1988, he discovered 17 minor planets,[1] including the asteroid 1807 Slovakia and the three unnamed Jupiter trojans (5025) 1986 TS6, (6545) 1986 TR6 and (7641) 1986 TT6.
A distinguished observer of comets and minor planets, he has determined exact astrometric positions from photographic plates for many thousands of small Solar System bodies.
[2] The main-belt asteroid 6717 Antal, discovered by German astronomers Freimut Börngen and Lutz Schmadel in 1990, is named in his honour.
