The Full Moon is in Sagittarius. Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius has entered Cancer on June 9. It is now in the first degree of Cancer in conjunction with centaur 39P\/Oterma and square Saturn. Centaur Oterma is <\/span><\/span>a currently inactive<\/span> Chiron-type comet. Mars in Leo is trine the Chiron-Eris conjunction in Aries, which was exact two weeks ago.

The recent study has revealed fascinating information about cubewano Altjira. Altjira was discovered in 2001 and so far has been considered a binary. The secondary was discovered in 2007 and is yet unnamed. There is strong evidence that Altjira consists of three bodies. Two of them are orbiting closely together and the third one is circling them further away. It is a rare setup and Altjira is the second known system of this kind in the Kuiper belt. The first known trinary is Lempo, Hiisi and Paha. Scientists will learn more during Altjira’s eclipsing season, which has already begun and will last several years.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The orbital period of Altjira is 294 years and the size of the two known components is <\/span><\/span>approximately 246 kilometres and 221 kilometres. It was named after the Arrente creation deity Altjira, the eternal creator of the world and humankind. The Arrente people are a group of Aboriginal Australian people, whose spirituality focuses on the landscape and <\/span>The Dreaming<\/i><\/span>. <\/span>The concept of the Dreaming has been described as “an all-embracing concept that provides rules for living, a moral code, as well as rules for interacting with the natural environment.\u201d It embraces past, present and future.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There are other exciting news about the distant minor planets. A large cubewano 2002 MS4 was officially named M\u00e1ni on June 9. It was discovered 23 years ago. The orbital period is almost 270 years and its mean diameter is about <\/span><\/span>796 km. M\u00e1ni’s topographic features are among the tallest and deepest known for Solar System bodies. M\u00e1ni was discovered in 2002 at 23+ Sagittarius in conjunction with Arrokoth and near the Galactic Center. The Sabian symbol for Sagittarius 24 is <\/span>A bluebird standing at the door of the house<\/i><\/span>. The bluebird is a symbol of hope and happiness. M\u00e1ni is now at 19+ Capricorn.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

M\u00e1ni is the first distant object named from Norse mythology. M\u00e1ni is a personification of the Moon and the brother of S\u00f3l, the Sun. They must pass through the heavens every day to count the years for mankind. They travel across the sky in chariots and are chased by two wolves, who would eventually devour them. It is the sign that Ragnar\u00f6k, the final battle between the gods and the demons is about to begin. After Ragnar\u00f6k the world is reborn.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In May the discovery of 2017 OF201 was announced. It is an extreme trans-Neptunian object (ETNO) estimated to be at least 550 – 850 km in diameter. The orbit is extremely large and elongated. The orbital period is over 24,000 years. It last passed perihelion around November 1930. The orientation of 2017 OF201’s orbit does not align with other extreme TNOs like Sedna, whose orbits are thought to be clustered because of the gravitational influence of Planet Nine. The discoverers first thought that 2017 OF201 would challenge <\/span>the existence of Planet Nine, but Konstantin Batygin, the co-author of the Planet Nine hypothesis, has argued<\/span> that it is not the case. 2017 OF201 is not numbered yet, but according to the premilinary data it is located around 8+ Taurus at the moment.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
