6433 Enya (1978 WC) is a main-belt asteroid discovered by A. Mrkos at Klet Observatory in 1978 named after the Irish musician Enya. It is in a 3.69 year orbit around the sun and lies between 279.7 million km, and 434.8 million km from the sun.[2]
- eccentricity 0.218322
- semimajor axis 2.397305 AU
- inclination 8.62667 degrees
- period 3.69 years = 1347.286 days
- absolute magnitude 14.6
Size, albedo and rotational period have not been determined. Given a typical albedo, it is probably not more than 30 kilometers in diameter.
