(613100) 2005 TN74 (provisional designation 2005 TN74) is a trans-Neptunian object (TNO)[2] in a 3:5 resonance with Neptune.[3][4] It was discovered by Scott S. Sheppard and Chadwick A. Trujillo in 2005.
It was initially suspected of being a Neptune trojan since the first observations gave it a semi-major axis of 30 AU and an orbital eccentricity of 0.16,[5] but further observations showed it to have a semi-major axis of 42.7 AU, a perihelion of 32.1 AU, and an aphelion of 53.4 AU.[1]
With an absolute magnitude of 7.2,[1] it has an expected diameter in the range of 85 to 240 km.[6]
It has been observed 19 times over four oppositions.[1]
