14627 Emilkowalski (1998 VA) is a main-belt asteroid discovered on November 7, 1998 by Richard A. Kowalski [1] at Quail Hollow Observatory. This asteroid is believed to result from the collisional destruction of a larger parent body approximately 220,000 years ago.[6] It was named after the discover's father.[7]
