(192686) Aljuroma is an asteroid located in the central main belt , which was discovered on October 15, 1999 by the German amateur astronomer Norbert Ehring at his private observatory in Bornheim - Brenig , North Rhine-Westphalia ( IAU code 127). Ehring had actually followed the orbit of another asteroid when he noticed Aljuroma in the constellation Pegasus (192686) .
At the point of its orbit closest to the Sun, the asteroid comes very close to the outermost point of Mars' orbit (at around 0.005 AU or 800,000 km), but does not cross it.
(192686) Aljuroma is named after the first two letters of the grandchildren of Norbert Ehring: Alexandra, Juri, Robin and Marlene. It was named on July 3, 2012.
