After observing the images, they noticed a star-like object moving along the orbital path. They tracked the object and decided to send the preliminary (1)_ cooperation with U.S. Minor Planet Center (MPC), which was run by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and Harvard College Observatory in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They received the confirmation about the object not being previously documented in MPC catalogue. The Center assigned the object a provisional designation, and the real work began. It took Bahodir Hafizov, the Uzbek astronomer at Maidanak, almost two years to plot the daily trajectory and define the precise coordinates of the object until the Center was satisfied that it was indeed a new minor planet, or small solar system body. The planet was enrolled in MPC catalogue and named Samarkand, after the city that was (2) ideal location and atmospheric conditions in astronomy.
