context_page_description: 9694 Lycomedes is a Jupiter trojan from the Greek camp, approximately 32 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered during the Palomar–Leiden survey at the Palomar Observatory in 1960 and later named after Lycomedes from Greek mythology. The dark Jovian asteroid is likely elongated in shape and has a rotation period of 18.2 hours.
