Asteroid number 113390, Helvetia was discovered on September 29, 2002 by Markus Griesser at Eschenberg Observatory at Winterthur, Zurich canton, Switzerland. It has a period of 3 years, 181 days and is slightly over 1 1/3 miles in diameter.
It was named for Helvetia, a personification or symbol of Switzerland.
Asteroid Helvetia's influence seems to be: not getting involved, not really involved, having to do with Switzerland or the Swiss.
