(39405) Mosigkau is an asteroid of the outer main belt , which was discovered on March 25, 1971 by the Dutch astronomer couple Cornelis Johannes van Houten and Ingrid van Houten-Groeneveld . The discovery was made during the first Trojan survey in 1971, during which Tom Gehrels surveyed field plates recorded at the University of Leiden with the 120 cm Oschin Schmidt telescope of the Palomar observatory .
The asteroid is a member of the Schubart family, a group of asteroids that was probably formed by collision 1.7 (± 0.7) billion years ago and orbits the Sun in an orbital resonance of 3: 2 with the planet Jupiter . This group is named after the asteroid (1911) Schubart .
(39405) Mosigkau was on 21 July 2005 after built from 1752 to 1757 Rococo - Mosigkau named the park to the UNESCO World Heritage Garden Kingdom of Dessau-Wörlitz belongs.
