Southeast San Diego

As a geographic area, Southeast San Diego refers generally to the southeastern-most portion of the City of San Diego, and refers to those neighborhoods south of State Route 94 (Martin Luther King Jr. Freeway) and east of Downtown San Diego. There are three official community planning areas: Skyline-Paradise Hills, Encanto Neighborhoods, and Southeastern.

Largely urbanized in the areas nearer Downtown San Diego to the west and characteristically hilly, with lower-density residential and semi-rural neighborhoods toward the east, it is economically and ethnically diverse.

In 1992, Councilman George Stevens campaigned against any official usage of the name "Southeast San Diego," since the designation had long been viewed as shorthand for the community as being a crime-ridden and impoverished. His campaign was successful and all official use of "Southeast San Diego" has been discontinued by the city. Many residents and locals however, still refer to the area as "Southeast."

San Diego

San Diego /ˌsæn diːˈeɪɡoʊ/ (Spanish for "Saint Didacus") is a major city in California, on the coast of the Pacific Ocean in Southern California, approximately 120 miles (190 km) south of Los Angeles and immediately adjacent to the border with Mexico.

With an estimated population of 1,381,069 as of July 1, 2014, San Diego is the eighth-largest city in the United States and second-largest in California. San Diego is the birthplace of California and is known for its mild year-round climate, natural deep-water harbor, extensive beaches, long association with the U.S. Navy, and recent emergence as a healthcare and biotechnology development center.

Historically home to the Kumeyaay people, San Diego was the first site visited by Europeans on what is now the West Coast of the United States. Upon landing in San Diego Bay in 1542, Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo claimed the entire area for Spain, forming the basis for the settlement of Alta California 200 years later. The Presidio and Mission of San Diego, founded in 1769, formed the first European settlement in what is now California. In 1821, San Diego became part of newly independent Mexico, and in 1850, became part of the United States following the Mexican–American War and the admission of California to the union.

3043 San Diego

3043 San Diego, provisional designation 1982 SA, is a bright, stony asteroid and slow rotator from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, about 4.7 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered by American female astronomer Eleanor Helin on September 30, 1982, at the U.S. Palomar Observatory in California. It is a member of the Hungaria family. Its provisional designation was 1982 SA, until May 3, 1984, when it was named after the city of San Diego, California.

The bright E-type asteroid is a member of the Hungaria family, which form the innermost dense concentration of asteroids in the Solar System. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.7–2.1 AU once every 2 years and 8 months (977 days). Its orbit is tilted by 22 degrees to the plane of the ecliptic and has an eccentricity of 0.11.Photometric measurements of the asteroid made in 2005 at the U.S. Palmer Divide Observatory (PDO) in Colorado showed a light-curve with a rotation period of 7001307200000000000♠30.72±0.02 hours and a brightness variation of 6999350000000000000♠0.35±0.05 in magnitude. However, the obtained data was distrust and the period was considered to be only preliminary. A re-examined light-curve at the PDO then rendered a much longer period of 7002105700000000000♠105.7±0.1 hours with an amplitude of 0.60 in magnitude.
