File:8 Flora Astronomical Symbol.svg
Summary
The traditional astronomical symbol for <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/8_Flora" class="extiw" title="w:8 Flora">8 Flora</a>, after <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://aa.usno.navy.mil/hilton/AsteroidHistory/minorplanets.html">Gould, B.A. 1852, On the Symbolic Notation of the Asteroids, Astron. J., 2, 80.</a> As the number of asteroids grew, the symbols got more and more complex, leading to the creation of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_Planet_Numbers" class="extiw" title="w:Minor Planet Numbers">Minor Planet Numbers</a>. This stylised flower is perhaps the most difficult to date, with its fairly complicated curves. Still, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10_Hygiea" class="extiw" title="w:10 Hygiea">10 Hygiea</a> would get much worse.
