Discovery

This trans-Neptunian object was discovered on 1 July 2010, by NASA's space-based Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). It was first observed by the Mount Lemmon Survey in 2009, extending the body's observation arc by 8 months prior to its official discovery observation by WISE.[1]

Orbit and classification

Orbital evolution

Epoch	Aphelion[lower-alpha 1]	Orbital period
1950	561 AU	4820 yrs
2050	563 AU	4830 yrs

2010 NV₁ orbits the Sun at a distance of 9.4–547.2 AU once every 4643 years and 5 months (1,696,004 days; semi-major axis of 278.33 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.97 and an inclination of 141° with respect to the ecliptic.[2] It came to perihelion in December 2010 at a distance of 9.4 AU from the Sun.[2] As of 2021^[update], it is 21.3 AU from the Sun.[8] It will not be 50 AU from the Sun until late 2044. After leaving the planetary region of the Solar System, 2010 NV₁ will have a barycentric aphelion of 563 AU with an orbital period of 4830 years. In a 10 million year integration of the orbit, the nominal (best-fit) orbit and both 3-sigma clones remain outside 7.7AU (q_min) from the Sun.[3]

Numbering and naming

This minor planet was numbered by the Minor Planet Center on 31 August 2012 (M.P.C. 80287).[10] As of 2021^[update], it has not been named.[1]

Physical characteristics

According to the surveys carried out by the NEOWISE mission, 2010 NV₁ measures 44.2 kilometers in diameter and its surface has a low albedo of 0.057.[5] More recent published data gives an diameter of 52.2±4.5 kilometers with an albedo of 0.042.[4][6]
