Description
2003 HB57 orbits the Sun at a distance of 38.1–294.2 AU once every 2141 years and 10 months (782,317 days). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.77 and an inclination of 15° with respect to the ecliptic.[1]
Extended scattered disc
It is one of a small group of extreme trans-Neptunian objects with perihelion distances of 30 AU or more, and semi-major axes of 150 AU or more.[6] Such objects can not have reached their present-day orbits without the gravitational influence of some perturbing object, which lead to the speculation of planet nine.[7][8]
Physical characterization
2003 HB57 has a BR-type spectrum and an estimated diameter of 147 and 200 kilometers based on an assumed albedo of 0.09 and 0.04, respectively.[2][5]
