2000 S5

Eccentricity · e

1.0

Orbit and dynamics

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 53.82° carries it well above and below the ecliptic plane.

Size and surface

Neither a measured diameter nor a reliable absolute magnitude is available for 2000 S5, so its physical size remains unconstrained.

Observation record and orbit quality

Astrometry from 11 individual observations underpins this orbit; the fit leaves an RMS residual of 16.715 arcseconds.

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.
