(24835) 1995 SM55 (provisional designation 1995 SM55) is a trans-Neptunian object and member of the Haumea family that resides in the Kuiper belt, located in the outermost region of the Solar System. It was discovered on 19 September 1995, by American astronomer Nichole Danzl of the Spacewatch program at Kitt Peak National Observatory near Tucson, Arizona, in the United States.[2] It measures approximately 200 kilometers in diameter and was the second-brightest known object in the Kuiper belt, after Pluto, until 1996 TO66 was discovered.

Origin

[edit]
Main article: Haumea family

1995 SM55 is a member of the Haumea family.[3] It has the highest collisional velocity, a δv of 123.3 m/s, of all confirmed members.[19] Based on their common pattern of IR water-ice absorptions, neutral visible spectrum[20] and the clustering of their orbital elements, the other KBOs 1996 TO66, 2002 TX300, 2003 OP32 and 2005 RR43 all appear to be collisional fragments broken off of the dwarf planet Haumea.

Naming

[edit]

As of 2018, this minor planet has not been named by the Minor Planet Center.[2]
