6395 Hilliard, provisional designation 1990 UE1, is a stony Nysian asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 4.5 kilometers in diameter.
It was discovered on 21 October 1990, by Japanese astronomers Yoshio Kushida and Osamu Muramatsu at Yatsugatake South Base Observatory, Japan.[7] The asteroid was later named after the British philanthropic couple Elizabeth and Leslie Hilliard, donors of the Herschel Museum of Astronomy.[2]
