    1092 Lilium is a minor planet orbiting the Sun. Initially it received the designation 1924 PN. The numerical designation indicates this was the 1092nd asteroid discovered.

    Photometric observations at the Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado Springs, Colorado during the winter of 2007–2008 were used to build a light curve for this asteroid. The asteroid displayed a period of 24.60 ± 0.05 hours and a brightness change of 0.30 ± 0.02 in magnitude.[1]
