54598 Bienor /baɪˈiːnɔːr/ is a centaur that grazes the orbit of Uranus. It is named after the mythological centaur Bienor. Its closest approach to the Sun ( perihelion) is 13.2 AU. [2] As of 2020 [update], Bienor is 14.2 AU from the Sun [7] and will reach perihelion in January 2028. [2] It measured approximately 198 kilometers (120 miles) in diameter. [4]
