951 Gaspra is an asteroid orbiting close to the inner edge of the main asteroid belt. Discovered by Grigory Neujmin on 3 January 1886, it was named after Gaspra, a retreat on Crimea. Gaspra was visited by the Gallileo spacecraft in 1991 as it was enroute to Jupiter. Gaspra is an elongated potato shaped body.
