4017 Disneya was a Main Belt Asteroid discovered on February 21, 1980. It was named after Walt Disney.
The Disney Corporation hired Rockhounds to tow "their" asteroid out of the Main Belt and park it in geosynchronous orbit above 158°W (midway between Orlando and Tokyo). The company renamed it Disney's World and turned it into a space-based version of their Earthbound theme parks.
