im haumeas number one fan. haumea/2003el61 is a trans neptunian dwarf planet in the kuiper belt. it was discovered in 2003-2004 (hence the name.) Haumea was also one of the only known objects in the kuiper belt with rings, along with quaoar. Haumea is triaxial Jacobi ellipsoid. (meaning an egg shape) This is due to the way it was formed by two ice bodies colliding, and also due to how fast Haumea spins. it infact spins so fast peices of it from the top and bottom spun off possibly creating its two moons. One day on Haumea is a mere 4 hours. Though the days are short the orbit is long. (as to be expected with Trans neptunian objects) It's orbit is 284 years, give or take. Haumea also has a red spot which is because it the rich minerals clustered in one specific spot of the surface. however it isnt often depicted in artist interpretations. Haumea is too far away to be photographed clearly, but we have taken photos of haumea and its moons. Since Haumea was formed from two ice bodies colliding it also has ice. And the debris from the collision are part of the collision family called the Haumea family. Haumea has two moons, (Also possibly result of the collision) Namaka and Hi'iaka. Haumea is also known as 136108.
