QUAOAR [ˈkwouˌär]
DEFINITION
Quaoar (noun) · Quaoars (plural noun)
Quaoar is named for the Tongva creator god, following the International Astronomical Union (IAU) naming convention for non-resonant Kuiper belt objects after creator deities.
Quaoar orbit around the Sun varies slightly, ranging from 45.114 AU (6.75 x 10 9 km / 4.19 x 10 9 mi) at aphelion to 41.695 AU (6.24 x 10 km 9/3.88 x 10 9 mi) at perihelion. Quaoar has an orbital period of 284.5 years, and a sidereal rotation period of about 17.68 hours.
Quaoar lurks in the Kuiper Belt, a group of icy objects beyond Neptune. It is about 42 astronomical units, or Earth-sun distances, away. That's about 4 billion miles (6 billion km) — a billion kilometers more distant than Neptune. It takes about 288 years for Quaoar to go once around the sun in a roughly circular orbit.
An artist's conception of Quaoar and its small moon Weywot. Quaoar is a planetoid that lies beyond Pluto's orbit in the solar system. Its discovery in 2002, as well as subsequent discoveries of other small worlds, led to a new classification and the redefinition of Pluto as a "dwarf planet."
