caption_attribution_description: English: Hubble Space Telescope image of the cubewano (90568) 2004 GV9, taken on 17 March 2010.
context_page_description: (90568) 2004 GV₉ is a trans-Neptunian object that was discovered on April 13, 2004 by NEAT. It has been listed as a cubewano by the Minor Planet Center.
  Brown estimates that is very likely a dwarf planet. A diameter of 680±34 km has been determined from combined observations of the Herschel and Spitzer space telescopes. Tancredi notes that light-curve-amplitude analysis shows only small deviations, suggesting that (90568) 2004 GV₉ could be a spheroid with small albedo spots and hence a dwarf planet. However, its low albedo suggests it has never been resurfaced and thus is unlikely to have planetary geology.
  It has been observed forty-seven times, with precovery images back to 1954.
