Discovery[edit]

2020 HA₁₀ was discovered at G=20.4 mag on 2020 April 28 by the Mount Lemmon Survey using the 0.5 m reflector + 10 K CCD.^[3]

Orbit and classification[edit]

It orbits the Sun at a distance of 0.7–0.9 AU once every 9 months (271 days; semi-major axis of 0.82 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.15 and an unusually high inclination of 50° with respect to the ecliptic.^[2]

The orbital evolution of 2020 HA₁₀ leads the object into the Aten orbital realm periodically.^[4]
