Question: What asteroid is named after a physicist who is a founding member of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics?
Context: The Scientific and Technical Information (STI) Program of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) collects, organizes, preserves, and releases the Agency's scientific and technical information.  STI is derived from NASA's research and development efforts and NASA projects, programs, and missions.  The program is essential in helping NASA avoid duplication of research, by sharing information to ensure that the U.S. maintains its preeminence in aerospace-related industries and education.  Examples of NASA STI include technical papers and reports, contractor reports, conference papers and proceedings, journal articles, presentations, and technical information on websites.  NASA STI also includes research information from NASA's predecessor agency, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which dates back to 1915 and transitioned to NASA at the advent of the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 (Amended). The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a U.S. federal agency founded on March 3, 1915, to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research.  On October 1, 1958, the agency was dissolved, and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).  NACA was pronounced as discrete letters, rather than as a whole word (and after NASA first was established, its initials were pronounced as discrete letters in the early years). Ames Research Center (ARC), also known as NASA Ames, is a major NASA research center at Moffett Federal Airfield in California's Silicon Valley.  It was founded as the second National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) laboratory.  That agency was dissolved and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on October 1, 1958.  NASA Ames is named in honor of Joseph Sweetman Ames, a physicist and one of the founding members of NACA.  At last estimate NASA Ames has over US$3.0 billion in capital equipment, 2,300 research personnel and a US$860 million annual budget. Joseph Sweetman Ames (July 3, 1864 – June 24, 1943) was a physicist, professor at Johns Hopkins University, provost of the university from 1926 until 1929, and university president from 1929 until 1935.  He is best remembered as one of the founding members of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA, the predecessor of NASA) and its longtime chairman (1919–1939).  NASA Ames Research Center is named after him.  He was elected a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1911.  He was the 1935 recipient of the Langley Gold Medal from the Smithsonian Institution.  Ames was also an assistant editor of "The Astrophysical Journal" and associate editor of the "American Journal of Science"; editor-in-chief of the "Scientific Memoir Series"; and editor of J. von Fraunhofer's memoirs on "Prismatic and Diffractive Spectra" (1898). George Jackson Mead (December 27, 1891 Everett, Massachusetts – January 20, 1949 Hartford, Connecticut) was an American aircraft engineer.  He is best known as one of the chief founding team members, together with Frederick Rentschler, of Pratt & Whitney Aircraft.  Mead and Rentschler left Wright Aeronautical with the plan to start their own aviation-related business; they founded Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in July 1925.  Their first project was to build a new, large, air-cooled, radial aircraft engine of Mead's design, which soon came to be named the Wasp.  The first Wasp model was the R-1340, and a large series of Wasp models and Hornet models followed.  Mead, as Vice President of Engineering, was the head of engineering for Pratt & Whitney from 1925 to 1935.  He later left Pratt & Whitney and its parent United Aircraft.  He served as the president of the U.S. National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), and he served as head of the aeronautical section of the National Defense Advisory Commission during World War II, as a manager in the U.S. government's war materiel production effort. Christopher Columbus "Chris" Kraft Jr. (born February 28, 1924) is an American aerospace engineer and retired NASA engineer and manager who was instrumental in establishing the agency's Mission Control operation.  Following his graduation from Virginia Tech in 1944, Kraft was hired by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), the predecessor organization to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).  He worked for over a decade in aeronautical research before being asked in 1958 to join the Space Task Group, a small team entrusted with the responsibility of putting America's first man in space.  Assigned to the flight operations division, Kraft became NASA's first flight director.  He was on duty during such historic missions as America's first manned spaceflight, first manned orbital flight, and first spacewalk. Annie J. Easley (April 23, 1933 – June 25, 2011) was an African-American computer scientist, mathematician, and rocket scientist.  She worked for the Lewis Research Center (now Glenn Research Center) of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and its predecessor, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA).  She was a leading member of the team which developed software for the Centaur rocket stage and one of the first African-Americans to work as a computer scientist at NASA. Abraham "Abe" Silverstein (September 15, 1908 – June 1, 2001) was an American engineer who played an important part in the United States space program.  He was a longtime manager at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and its predecessor, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA).  He was instrumental in the planning of the Apollo, Ranger, Mariner, Surveyor, and Voyager missions, and named the Apollo program after the Greek and Roman God. Mihajlo Idvorski Pupin, Ph.D., LL.D.  (Serbian Cyrillic: Михајло Идворски Пупин, ] ; 4 October 1858 – 12 March 1935), also known as Michael I. Pupin was a Serbian American physicist and physical chemist.  Pupin is best known for his numerous patents, including a means of greatly extending the range of long-distance telephone communication by placing loading coils (of wire) at predetermined intervals along the transmitting wire (known as "pupinization").  Pupin was a founding member of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) on 3 March 1915, which later became NASA. 57868 Pupin, provisional designation 2001 YD, is a dark Erigonian asteroid and slow rotator from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 3.5 kilometers in diameter.  It was discovered on 17 December 2001, by astronomers of Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) at the Palomar Observatory in California, United States.  The asteroid was name after Serbian–American physicist Mihajlo Pupin.
Answer: 57868 Pupin
