Proper Name | None | Minor Planet Designation | 90568 2004 GV9 | Provisional Designation | 2004 GV9 | Orbital Period | 273 years, 321 days | Distance from the Sun | Semi-Major Axis: 6,309,000,000 km (42.17 AU) Perihelion: 5,793,675,000 km (38.73 AU) Aphelion: 6,824,325,000 km (45.62 AU) | Eccentricity | 0.0817 | Rotation Period | 5 hours, 52 minutes | Diameter | 680 km | Moons | None known | Parent star | The Sun, yellow dwarf | Other planets in this system | Mercury, terrestrial planet Venus, terrestrial planet Earth, terrestrial planet Mars, terrestrial planet Jupiter, gas giant Saturn, gas giant Uranus, ice giant Neptune, ice giant Numerous dwarf planets, asteroids and other bodies
| Notes | A cubewano, one of the class of objects that circle the Sun in the far reaches of the Solar System beyond the orbit of Neptune. 2004 GV9 appears to be a spherical body with a patterned surface, and is considered likely to fall within the parameters of a dwarf planet. |
This rendering is based on the current best estimate for the appearance dwarf planet 2004 GV9. With a diameter of some 680 km, the planetoid is likely to be essentially spherical in form, and its surface appears to be patterned with lighter, more reflective regions.
