(5335) Damocles, strong determination to back up strange theories

(5335) Damocles is a damocloid asteroid with Kozai resonance (inclination of 62º) discovered in February of 1991. It has a perihelion of 1.6 AU and an aphelion of 22.1 AU. The orbit is between Mars and Uranus. It has a diameter of about 10 km.

After a sudden catastrophe, like the airplane crash in the first episode of the TV series "Lost " (2004) or the burning house example in the book "The Power of Free-Will" (Annie Marquier, 1991), most people breakdown and are unable to do nothing, instead (5335) Damocles reacts with fast and constructive action in extraordinary circumstances (Mars-Uranus combination and high orbital inclination).  


'The Truth Is Out There' (X-Files)

(5335) Damocles also has a strong determination to back up strange theories (high orbital inclination), even when there is not evidence yet, like Fox Malder in the TV series "X-Files" (1992).

(144908) 2004 YH32, hunter of unusual resources

(144908) 2004 YH32  is a centaur with very high orbital inclination (80º) discovered in December of 2004. It has a perihelion of 3.5 AU and an aphelion of 12.8 AU (main asteroid belt-Thereus combination).

(144908) 2004 YH32 combines the living support of the main belt with the hunter quality of Thereus. Because of the high inclination of its orbit, is directed towards very unnusual resources, like in the movies "Anacondas 2: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid" (2004), "National Treasure" (2004) and "Alien vs. Predator" (2004).

1997 MD10, be aware of your passion and strengh

1997 MD10 is a damocloid object with Kozai resonance (59º inclination) discovered in September of 1997. It has a perihelion of 1.5 AU and an aphelion of 51.6 AU. Its orbit is between Mars and the outer limit of the Kuiper belt.

1997 MD10 is related with being aware of the martial passion and strength in others as well in oneself. This revelation, usually happends during exceptional circumstances, like in the movie "Titanic" (1997), "Hercules" (1997) and "Red Corner" (1997).

The Spice Girls world phenomenon appeared during the discovery of 1997 MD10, overstriked by the prediscoveries of (137924) 2000 BD19 and  (29981) 1999 TD10:

In June of 1996, the pop girl group "Spice Girls" released the single "Wannabe" in the United Kingdom, five months later in Europe, and at the beginning of the year 1997 in the United States. In seven weeks Spice had sold 1.8 million copies in Britain alone, making the Spice Girls the fastest selling British act since the Beatles. In April of 1997, they wrote their ideology in the book "Girl Power!" (Wikipedia: Spice Girls)

The sword of Damocles

"Tomb Raider Anniversary" (PS2, 2007)

Damocles was a real person that lived in Syracuse (Sicily) in the 4th Century BC, and was member of the court of Dionysius II. The story of Damocles has became mythic:

Damocles used to talk about how wonderful it must be to be a king. Dionysus, decided to teach him a lesson by inviting him to a sumptuous banquet. Damocles was enjoying very much, until Dionysus directed Damocles' attention upward, to where a big sharp sword was suspended directly over his head by a single thread.

This mythology embodies the tree key elements of (5335) Damocles: the sword (Mars), the thread (Uranus) and experiences away from day to day life (high orbital inclination).
