Alicanto, Chilean mythology for (474640) 2004 VN112

On May, 14, 2021, the object 2004 VN112 was officially named (474640) Alicanto.

 

 

"The Alicanto is a Chilean mythological bird of the Atacama Desert whose wings shine at night with beautiful, metallic colors. A miner who follows it can find rich mineral outcrops or treasures, but if the Alicanto discovers that it's being followed, it will turn off the shining of its wings and scuttle away in the darkness of the night. [Ref: WGSBN Bull. 1, #1, 30]"

 

(474640) Alicanto is a detached extreme transneptunian object (Kuiper belt I) discovered in November of 2004. There is a prediscovery image back to September of 2000.

It reached the perihelion in June of 2009.

The orbit is located between the Kuiper belt and the inner Oort cloud. It has a perihelion of 47.29 AU and an aphelion of 590.64 AU. The semimajor axis is at 318.97 AU. It has an orbital period of 5696 years and 271 days. It has an inclination of 25.6º (semiseptile 25º43 [=(tri)septile 154º17' > 0º Libra], 0º07' orb). It has a diameter of about 315 km.

It has the following orbital resonances:

 

"Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas" (2003)

Semi-major axis:
1:23 with Pluto (%100.0)
-
1:21 with Salacia (99.9)
 

Perihelion:
1:11 with Saturn (99.6)
1:2 with Neptune (98.7)
-
5:6 with Salacia (%100.0)
12:7 with Eris (99.8)

 

The object Alicanto combines the infiltration ability of twotinos (perihelion in 1:2 resonance with Neptune) and the capacity to make drastic decisions based on priority criteria according on the severity of the consequences (perihelion in 1:11 resonance with Saturn), with the spiritual intelligence of objects of the Oort cloud (aphelion).

 

"Gone in 60 Seconds" (2000)

The purpose of the object Alicanto is to protect life, ensuring its development and evolution in the right direction. For this, it is capable of making very difficult decisions --in which in addition to advantages there may be significant disadvantages or risks--, evaluating according to statistical criteria or artificial intelligence algorithms.

 

"I-Robot" (2004)

 

Thanks to its ability to hide its intentions, it is able to do something valuable for others or for itself, even while immersed in circumstances of mass surveillance.

ǂKágára, South African mythology for (469705) 2005 EF298

On June 16, 2021, the object (469705) 2005 EF298 and its moon, were officially named ǂKágára and ǃHãunu, respectively.

 

"In the mythology of the ǀXam people of the Karoo region of southern Africa, ǂKágára  and ǃHãunu fought an epic battle in the east using thunder and lightning, producing mountainous clouds and rain. The conflict was over ǂKáágára returning his younger sister, ǃHãunu's wife, to their parents. [The primary is being named  ǂKágára and the satellite is being named ǃHãunu.]" [Ref: WGSBN Bulletin 1, #3] 

 

The story, recorded in the 19th century in the now extinct ǀXam language of South Africa, tells the dispute between ǂKágára and his brother-in-law ǃHãunu. When ǂKágára came to fetch his sister and take her to their parents' house, ǃHãunu chased them and began to throw lightning at ǂKá̦gára, but ǂKá̦gára was unhurt and one of the rays bounced backwards, reaching ǃHãunu, who died slowly amidst the shaking of thunder.

The moon of the object ǂKágára was discovered in January 2009 and was announced in the year 2011.

 

From 2015 to 2035, several mutual occultations have occurred and will continue to occur between the object ǂKágára and its moon.

It has the following orbital resonances:

Semi-major axis:
6:7 with Pluto (99.6)
23:12 with Eris (%100.0)
13:23 with Neptune (99.5)

"Déjà vu" (2006)

2:7 with Uranus (98.7)
1:1 with Quaoar (98.9)

Perihelion:
1:3 with Uranus (99.6)
11:9 with Makemake (%100.0)

Aphelion:
1:2 with Neptune (99.8)

6:7 with Varuna (99.9)
5:3 with Gonggong (99.8)
3:4 with Pluto (99.6)

 

The object ǂKágára is related with karmic invulnerability and instantaneous karmic returns (2:7 resonance with Uranus).

 

James Marsden (Straw Dogs, 2011)

 

The object ǂKágára can solve the difficulties faced, by intuitively knowing the factors that cause blockage and how to deactivate or activate it, causing a sudden change of conditions (2:7 resonance with Uranus). And for that, ǂKágára has the ability to hide personal aspects that may interfere in the process (1:2 resonance with Neptune) and the ability to redefine the situation based on unequivocal evidence (11:5 resonance with Eris). 

 

James Marsden, actor of the movie "Straw Dogs" (2011), has ǂKágára in Cancer (low point) (6th Moon-Node House), trine Pallas in Scorpio (low point) (2nd Moon-Node House) [which it is in square with the Crossing Axis of Age Progressions (Signs Horoscope) in the signs Leo/Aquarius]; and (bi)novile Mercury in Libra (3rd Moon-Node House).

 

Giovanni Ribisi, actor of the movie "Flight of the Phoenix" (2004), has ǂKágára in Cancer (5th Moon-Node House), near Saturn, in (bi)novile@80º with Pluto in Libra (3er Moon-Node House, cusp).

 

Denzel Washington, actor of the movie "Déjà vu" (2006), has ǂKágára in Gemini (7th Moon-Node House), in (cuadra)novile@160º with the Black Moon in Sagittarius (2nd Moon-Node House, cusp).
