1680 V1

1680 V1 follows a distinctly cometary orbit: an eccentricity of 1 carries it from 0.006 AU at perihelion out to 888.8 AU at aphelion.

Orbit and dynamics

The path is an ellipse reaching 0.006 AU from the Sun at perihelion and 888.8 AU at aphelion, a radial span of 888.8 AU.

Applying Kepler's third law to a = 444.4 AU gives an orbital period of 9,368 yr, or about 3,421,774 days.

The high eccentricity (1) produces a strongly elongated orbit, so the object spends most of its time far from the Sun.

A steep inclination of 60.68° carries it well above and below the ecliptic plane.

Because q < 1 AU and Q > 1 AU, this orbit geometrically intersects the region of Earth's orbit.

Size and surface

Neither a measured diameter nor a reliable absolute magnitude is available for 1680 V1, so its physical size remains unconstrained.

Observation record and orbit quality

The current orbit solution is based on 30 observations.

About these computed values

Orbital periods, perihelion and aphelion speeds, and diameter estimates on this page are computed by SpaceAtlas from the JPL SBDB orbital elements. They are derived quantities, not values copied from the source catalogue.
