'''1036 Ganymed''', provisional designation ''{{mp|1924 TD}}'', is a stony [[asteroid]] on a highly [[Orbital eccentricity|eccentric orbit]], classified as a [[near-Earth object]] of the [[Amor asteroid|Amor group]]. It was discovered by German astronomer [[Walter Baade]] at the [[Bergedorf Observatory]] in Hamburg on 23 October 1924, and named after [[Ganymede (mythology)|Ganymede]] from [[Greek mythology]].<ref name="MPC-object" /><ref name="springer" /> With a diameter of approximately {{convert|35|km|mi|abbr=off|sp=us}}, Ganymed is the largest of all near-Earth objects but does not cross [[Earth]]'s orbit. The [[S-type asteroid]] has a [[rotation period]] of 10.3 hours. In October 2024, it is predicted to approach Earth at a distance of {{convert|0.374097 |AU |km mi|abbr=on|lk=off |sigfig=2 |order=flip}}.<ref name="jpl-close" />
