Moon
On March 5, 1977 Hebe occulted Kaffaljidhma (γ Ceti), a moderately bright 3rd magnitude star. No other observed occultations by Hebe have been reported.
As a result of that occultation, a small Hebean moon was reported by Paul D. Maley. It was nicknamed "Jebe" (see Heebie Jeebies). However, the discovery has not been confirmed.
