(470599) 2008 OG19 (provisional designation 2008 OG19) is a trans-Neptunian object located in the scattered disc.[4] It was discovered on 30 July 2008 through the Palomar Observatory.[2] It displays a large light curve amplitude of 0.437±0.011 magnitudes, implying that it is highly elongated in shape, similar to 20000 Varuna. Based on models for its light curve amplitude, they obtained an approximate density of 0.609 g/cm3 and aspect ratios of b/a = 0.513 and c/a = 0.39.[3]
