(84522) 2002 TC302 is a large red 2:5 resonant Trans-Neptunian object[1] , orbiting the sun at a distance of 39 to 71 AU. Due to the resonance, it completes 2 orbits for every 5 orbits of Neptune. The red spectra suggests that (84522) 2002 TC302 has very little ice on its surface and explains why it has a lower than average albedo.

(84522) 2002 TC302 was discovered on October 9, 2002 by the NEAT program at the Palomar Observatory.
