ID: list-of-minor-planets-named-after-places
A list of minor planets named after places includes celestial bodies (typically asteroids) that are named in honor of geographical locations, regions, cities, and other significant landmarks. These names often reflect cultural, historical, or personal significance associated with the area being honored. While I can't provide an exhaustive list, here are some notable examples: 1. **243 Ida** - Named after the mountain Ida on the Greek island of Crete.
