20000 Varuna is a large classical Kuiper belt object. It previously had the provisional designation 2000 WR106 and has been precovered in plates dating back to 1953. It is probably a dwarf planet.
Varuna is named after a Hindu deity. Varuna was one of the most important deities of the ancient Indians, and he presided over the waters of the heaven and of the ocean and was the guardian of immortality. Varuna received the minor planet number 20000 because it was the largest cubewano found so far and was believed to be as large as Ceres.
Varuna is classified as a classical trans-Neptunian object and follows a near-circular orbit with a semi-major axis of ≈43 AU, similar to that of Quaoar but more inclined. Its orbital period is 283 years.
Varuna has a rotational period of approximately 6.34 hours. Given the rapid rotation, rare for objects so large, Varuna is thought to be an elongated spheroid
