Haumea.GIF (590 × 514 pixels, file size: 144 KB, MIME type: image/gif, looped, 14 frames, 3.5 s)

Description The motion of Haumea in a rotating frame with a period equal to Neptune's orbital period. (Neptune is held stationary.) It shows the nominal orbit of Haumea librating in a 12:7 resonance to Neptune. Neptune is the blue (stationary) dot at 5 o'clock. Uranus is green, Saturn yellow, and Jupiter pink. Where red turns to green is where it crosses the ecliptic. Notice that these nodes control the reversal. The animated GIF consists of 14 frames.
