1235 Schorria (1931 UJ) is a Mars-crossing asteroid discovered on October 18, 1931 by K. Reinmuth at Heidelberg. Based on lightcurve studies, Schorria has a rotation period of 1265 hours.[1] Schorria, was observed in 2009 February through April. The period was determined to be approximately 1265 ± 80 h (about 51.7 days).[2] This makes the asteroid among the slowest rotators known.
