1428 Mombasa darker P-type asteroid. According to the surveys carried out by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite IRAS, the Japanese Akari satellite, and NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer with its subsequent NEOWISE mission, "Mombasa" measures between 52.46 and 62.45 kilometers in diameter, ignoring a preliminary result of 127 km, and its surface has an albedo of 0.025 and 0.06. The "Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link" derives an albedo of 0.0415 and a diameter of 56.83 kilometers with an absolute magnitude of 10.3. This minor planet was named after Mombasa, chief-port and second largest city of Kenya on the coast of East Africa. Naming citation
Mombasa–Nairobi Standard Gauge Railway transportation corridor between Tsavo East National Park and Tsavo West National Park. Because they are at ground level, collisions with wildlife occur. The viaducts and embankments elevate the SGR above ground level, allowing wildlife to pass safely underneath. Six underpasses also allow wildlife to move safely beneath the SGR. Passenger trains run between Mombasa Terminus in Miritini and Nairobi Terminus in Syokimau, which is near the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport Freight services are provided between Port Reitz, which is just west of Mombasa Island, and the inland container depot in the Embakasi division of Nairobi.
