42355 Typhon (/ˈtaɪfɒn/; provisional designation 2002 CR46) is a scattered disc object that was discovered on February 5, 2002, by the NEAT program. It measures 162±7 km in diameter, and is named after Typhon, a monster in Greek mythology.

Typhon is the first known binary centaur,[8] using an extended definition of a centaur as an object on a non-resonant (unstable) orbit with the perihelion inside the orbit of Neptune.[9]

Physical properties

Typhon has a BR taxonomic class, with a blue surface. It has a resulting B–R magnitude of 1.274.

Based on a conventional magnitude-to-diameter conversion, the body measures 162 km in diameter, with an albedo of 0.044 and a magnitude of 7.5. Mike Brown gives it a diameter of 192 km with a magnitude of 7.5. Due to its small size, it is unlikely to be classified as a dwarf planet. As of 2021, no rotational lightcurve has been analyzed. The body's rotational period, pole, and actual shape remain unknown.

A large moon was identified in 2006. It is named Echidna (formal designation (42355) Typhon I Echidna), after the monstrous mate of Typhon. It orbits Typhon at ~1300 km, completing one orbit in about 11 days. Its diameter is estimated to be 89±6 km.
