At most oppositions, however, Juno only reaches a magnitude of around +8.7 [24] —only just visible with binoculars—and at smaller elongations a 3-inch (76 mm) telescope will be required to resolve it. [25] It is the main body in the Juno family. Juno was originally considered a planet, along with 1 Ceres, 2 Pallas, and 4 Vesta. [26]
At 513 ± 3 km in diameter, [9] Pallas is slightly smaller than Vesta (525.4 ± 0.2 km [48]). The mass of Pallas is 79% ± 1% that of Vesta, 22% that of Ceres, and a quarter of one percent that of the Moon. Pallas is farther from Earth and has a much lower albedo than Vesta, and hence is dimmer as seen from Earth.
The timeline of discovery of Solar System planets and their natural satellites charts the progress of the discovery of new bodies over history. Each object is listed in chronological order of its discovery (multiple dates occur when the moments of imaging, observation, and publication differ), identified through its various designations (including temporary and permanent schemes), and the ...

Vesta's surface, dominated by basaltic and metamorphic material, has a denser composition than Ceres's. [155] Its surface is marked by two giant craters: Rheasilvia and Veneneia. [156] Pallas (2.15–2.57 AU) is the third-largest object in the asteroid belt. [152] It has its own Pallas asteroid family. [153]
