}}{{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} is a red 2:5 resonant[3] trans-Neptunian object (TNO) discovered on October 9, 2002 by Mike Brown's team at the Palomar Observatory.[1]

Physical characteristics

{{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} has an absolute magnitude (H) of 3.78.[5] It has an estimated diameter of {{val|584.1|+105.6|-88.0|u=km}}.[7] Using the Spitzer Space Telescope, it was previously estimated to have a diameter of {{val|1145|+337|-325|u=km}},[8] which would have made it one of the largest possible dwarf planets. This overestimation was due to insufficient motion to allow for a good sky subtraction and because it was very close to a brighter background object.[7] Brown noted that the Spitzer measurement involved a very large potential error and that the object would likely be smaller, making its chances of it being a dwarf planet "likely" rather than "near certainty", in his opinion.[9]

It was predicted that on 30 November 2013, {{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} might occult a star for slightly less than a minute.[10] However, the possibility to observe this occultation was judged as small. The precise duration that a Solar System object occults a star provides a precise way to determine its diameter, if observed from multiple locations.

The red spectra suggests that {{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} has very little fresh ice on its surface.[8]

{{clear left}}

Its rotational period is most likely 5.41 h, and it has a light-curve amplitude of {{val|0.04|0.01|u=mag}}.[11]

Orbit

{{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} will come to perihelion in 2058.[5] Its perihelion (minimum distance from the Sun) of 39.1 AU[5] is about the same as Pluto's semi-major axis (average distance from the Sun). It is classified as a scattered disc object.[2][3]

Given the long orbit that TNOs have around the Sun, {{mp|(84522) 2002 TC|302}} comes to opposition in late October of each year at an apparent magnitude of 20.5.[12]

Resonance

Both the Minor Planet Center (MPC) and the Deep Ecliptic Survey (DES) show this probable dwarf planet to be in a 2:5 resonance with Neptune.[3][4] Due to the resonance, it completes two orbits for every five orbits of Neptune.

As of 2009, it is the largest likely dwarf planet that is known to be in a non-plutino resonance with Neptune. Plutinos are objects in 2:3 mean-motion resonance with Neptune. For every two orbits that a plutino makes, Neptune makes three.

Precovery

It has been observed 76 times back to August 5, 2000.[5]
