(5039) Rosenkavalier is an asteroid of the main belt that was discovered on April 11, 1967 by the German astronomer Freimut Börngen at the Thuringian State Observatory in Tautenburg ( IAU code 033) in Thuringia .
The asteroid belongs to the Eos family, a group of asteroids, which typically have large semiaxes from 2.95 to 3.1 AU , bounded inward by the Kirkwood gap of the 7: 3 resonance with Jupiter , and orbital inclinations between 8 ° and 12 °. The group is named after the asteroid (221) Eos . The family is believed to have emerged from a collision more than a billion years ago.
(5039) Rosenkavalier was named after the opera Der Rosenkavalier by Richard Strauss , which premiered on January 26, 1911 in the Semperoper in Dresden .
