(33961) Macinleyneve is in the inner main belt situated asteroid , which (on 7 July 2000 at the Lincoln Laboratory Experimental Test System IAU code 704) in Socorro , New Mexico within the project Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research was discovered (LINEAR).
The diameter of the asteroid was calculated to be 2.539 km (± 0.277). The albedo of 0.467 (± 0.118) suggests a dark surface.
(33961) Macinleyneve belongs to the Polana family (named after (142) Polana ), a subgroup of the Nysa group (named after (44) Nysa ). The Nysa group is also called the Hertha family (after (135) Hertha ). What all members of the families and groups mentioned have in common is that the orbits around the sun are in 2: 1 resonance with those of the planet Mars and are therefore stable over a longer period of time. The ageless (not osculating ) orbital elements of (33961) Macinleyneve are almost identical with those of six smaller asteroids, the largest of which, when one of the absolute brightness emanates, (92723) 2000 QH 96 is.
(33961) Macinleyneve was named on May 29, 2018 after Macinley Neve Butson (* 2000), a student at Illawara Grammar School , located in Mangerton, a suburb of Wollongong , Australia , for attending Intel International Science and Engineering Fair 2017, a pre-university research competition, won first prize in the Translational Medical Science category . Her project was titled SMART ARMOR - Improving Outcomes for Radiotherapy Breast Cancer Patients (INTELLIGENT ARMOR - better results for breast cancer patients with radiation).
