It is the smallest weird number, a natural number that is abundant but not semiperfect, where it is also the second-smallest primitive abundant number, after 20. 70 is in equivalence with the sum between the smallest number that is the sum of ''two'' abundant numbers, and the largest that is not ( 24, 46). 70 is the tenth Erdős–Woods number, since it is possible to find sequences of seventy consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member. It is also the sixth Pell number, preceding the tenth prime number 29, in the sequence \. 70 is a palindromic number in bases 9 (779), 13 (5513) and 34 (2234).

70 Panopaea
70 Panopaea is a large main belt asteroid. Its orbit is close to those of the Eunomia asteroid family; however, Panopaea is a dark, primitive carbonaceous C-type asteroid in contrast to the S-type asteroids of the Eunomian asteroids. The spectra of the asteroid displays evidence of aqueous alteration. Photometric studies give a rotation period of 15.797 hours and an amplitude of in magnitude. Previous studies that suggested the rotation period may be twice this amount were rejected based upon further observation. Panopaea was discovered by Hermann Goldschmidt on 5 May 1861. It was his fourteenth and last asteroid discovery. It is named after Panopea, a nymph in Greek mythology; the name was chosen by Robert Main, President of the Royal Astronomical Society. In 1862, Swedish astronomer Nils Christoffer Dunér gave a doctoral thesis on the orbital elements of this asteroid. The orbit of 70 Panopaea places it in a mean motion resonance with the planets Jupiter and Satu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
