(65708) Ehrlich is an asteroid of the main inner belt . It was discovered by the German astronomers Freimut Börngen and Lutz D. Schmadel on September 4, 1992 with the Schmidt telescope of the Karl Schwarzschild Observatory ( IAU code 033) in the Tautenburg Forest .
The asteroid's albedo of 0.030 (± 0.008) indicates a dark surface.
(65708) Ehrlich belongs to the Nysa group, a group of asteroids named after (44) Nysa (also called the Hertha family, after (135) Hertha ).
The track from (65708) Ehrlich was secured in 2003 so that numbering could be assigned. The asteroid was named on January 7, 2004 at the suggestion of Freimut Börngen after the German doctor and researcher Paul Ehrlich (1854-1915), who together with Ilja Metschniko received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1908 “in recognition of their work on immunity”. As early as 1970, a lunar crater on the northern side of the moon was named after Ehrlich: Lunar crater Ehrlich .
