2010 TH192
2010 TH 192 is the name of a suspected asteroid whose discovery was reported in October 2010 but could not be confirmed later. 13 observations were communicated, but an asteroid matching these data could no longer be observed after 2013. In July 2016, the discovery report was withdrawn by its authors, and the asteroid is no longer listed in the database of the Minor Planet Center . Also in the JPL Small-Body Database of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA , the entry has been removed.
According to the observation data initially communicated, the asteroid would have belonged to the group of centaurs . According to calculations from this data, it would have traveled on a moderately eccentric orbit ( orbit eccentricity about 0.31) in about 141 years at a distance between about 18.7 and 35.5 AU around the sun . Its orbit would have been inclined about 99.6 ° to the ecliptic , so that it would have had a retrograde orbit.
He would have been the absolutely brightest retrograde centaur known. Now (as of end of 2018) (471325) 2011 KT 19 ("Niku") is the absolutely brightest known retrograde asteroid in our solar system.
