Transcription: On August 28, 1993, Galileo had a second asteroid encounter with a larger, more distant body called Ida. This asteroid is about 34 by 12 by 15 miles in size. It rotates every 4.6 hours on its short axis. Like Gaspara, Ida seems to have a magnetic field, a sign that metals may be present.
