Bennu
node
Asteroid. A near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid — sampled by OSIRIS-REx, the sample returned to Earth in 2023. Near-Earth orbit, not a belt member; no figure position is drawn. (mean distance 1.126 au, orbital period 1.2 years, diameter 0.49 km; NASA OSIRIS-REx mission pages · JPL small-body database (101955 Bennu).) Not a place on Earth. Listed without a figure position: JPL small-body orbital elements were not importable in this environment, and no position is invented.
A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
