Scientific paper

Interferometric observations of asteroid (216) Kleopatra were performed in January 2000 using the Fine Guidance Sensors (FGS) aboard HST. The FGS data obtained clearly suggest that (216) Kleopatra is composed of two lobes in contact, in agreement with the radar data (Ostro et al. 2000, Science 288, 836-839), and provide more precise constraints on the absolute size of this peculiar object.
