Scientific paper

Radar echoes from the near-earth asteroid 1627 Ivar, whose orbit crosses
the earth's, reveal it to be about twice as long as it is wide, with a
maximum dimension no less than 7 km and probably within 20 percent of 12
km. The surface is fairly smooth at centimeter-to-meter scales but
appears irregular and nonconvex at kilometer scales.
