617 Patroclus is a large binary Jupiter L5 trojan asteroid. It is a dark D-type asteroid and a slow rotator, due to the 103-hour orbital period of its two components. The secondary component, discovered in 2001, is called Menoetius. It is the final target of the Lucy spacecraft, with a flyby planned for March 2033.
