Discovered in 1903, 511 Davida is one of the largest asteroids in the Solar System, measuring approximately 186 miles (298 kilometers) in diameter. Its orbit is located in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, with a semi-major axis of 3.09 AU and an orbital period of 5.0 years. It is classified as a C-type asteroid, meaning that its surface is composed of carbonaceous material. 511 Davida has a high albedo of 0.14, which suggests it is covered in a layer of dust and dirt. It is also one of the few asteroids to have been observed from Earth.
