210 Isabella is a large and dark asteroid from the central asteroid belt, approximately 80 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered in Pola by Johann Palisa on 12 November 1879. The origin of the name is unknown. It is orbiting at a distance of 2.72 AU from the Sun with an eccentricity of 0.12 and a period of 4.49 yr. The orbital plane is inclined at an angle of 5.26° to the plane of the ecliptic.[2]
The asteroid is probably composed of material similar to carbonaceous chondrites. It is classified as a member of the Nemesis family of asteroids.[4] Estimates of the diameter range from 74[3] to 87 km.[2] It is spinning with a period of 6.67 h.
