see § List of discovered minor planets

He discovered a total of sixty-six asteroids. Notable discoveries include 1221 Amor (which lent its name to the Amor asteroids) and the Apollo asteroid 2101 Adonis.[2] He discovered or co-discovered some comets as well, including periodic comet 57P/du Toit-Neujmin-Delporte.[2] He worked in the Observatoire Royal de Belgique (Belgian Royal Observatory), situated in the town of Uccle (after which the asteroid 1276 Ucclia is named).[2] He started there in 1903 after receiving his doctorate that year from the Free University of Brussels.[4]

In 1930 he drew the modern boundaries between all of the constellations in the sky, along lines of right ascension and declination for the epoch B1875.0.[2]

The Florian asteroid 1274 Delportia (discovered by himself) and the lunar impact crater Delporte were named after him.[3][5]
