101P/Chernykh[5] is a periodic comet which was first discovered on August 19, 1977, by Nikolaj Stepanovich Chernykh.[6]

In 1991, 101P/Chernykh was observed to split. JPL concluded that the comet split in April 1991, when 3.3 AU from the Sun.[7]

The primary nucleus is 5.6 km (3.5 mi) in diameter and was last observed in 2020.[8] Fragment B has not been observed since 1996.[4]
