(332530) Canders is an asteroid located in the main mid- belt . It was discovered by the Lithuanian astronomer Kazimieras Černis and the Latvian astronomer Ilgmārs Eglītis on July 29, 2008 with the Schmidt telescope of the Baldones astrofizikas observatorija of the Astronomical Institute of the University of Latvia in Riekstukalns near Baldone ( IAU code 069). The asteroid was spotted there while observing 217 positions of 56 asteroids together with, for example, the newly discovered asteroids (276162) 2002 LV 61 , (352646) Blumbahs and (428694) Saule .
(332530) Canders was named on January 5, 2015 after the German Baltic-Soviet scholar, inventor and rocket builder Friedrich Arturowitsch Zander (1887–1933), which is written in Lithuanian as Fridrihs Canders .
