'''3 Juno''' is a large prograde asteroid in the main asteroid belt between [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] and was the third asteroid discovered by [[w:Karl Harding|Karl Harding]] in September 1804 and was named for the [[w:Roman mythology|Roman goddess]] [[w:Juno (mythology)|Juno]].

Juno contains perhaps 1% of the mass of the entire asteroid belt.
