Description: The resonant angle ϕ=12⋅λ−7⋅λN−5⋅ϖ−1⋅Ω of dwarf planet (136108) Haumea, over a period of 5 million years. Haumea is in an intermittent 7:12 resonance with Neptune, which is broken for a few hundred thousand years once every 2.3 million years. The next break will happen about 250,000 years from now.
