2839 Annette (1929 TP) is a main-belt asteroid discovered on October 5, 1929 by Clyde Tombaugh at the Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff during his search for Pluto. It is named after his daughter Annette.
Photometric observations of the asteroid during 2005 at the Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado Springs, Colorado, were used to generate a light curve with a period of 10.457 ± 0.003 hours and a variation in brightness of 0.92 ± 0.03 magnitude.[1]
