38628 Huya

38628 Huya (provisional designation: 200 EB₁₇₃) is a binary trans-Neptunian object located in the Kuiper Belt. Huya is classified as a plutino, a dynamical class of trans-Neptunian objects with orbits in a 3:2 orbital resonance with Neptune.
Huya's surface is moderately red due to the presence of tholins on the surface. Volatiles and water ice have also been speculated to exist on its surface. Huya is considered as a mid-sized trans-Neptunian object, with an estimated diameter of about 400 km (250 mi). Huya is considered to be a possible dwarf planet, though its relatively small size and dark surface may imply that it never collapsed into a solid body and was thus never in hydrostatic equilibrium.
