Near-Earth object / ID: 2053426
53426 is a near-Earth object of the APO orbit class — Near-Earth asteroid orbits which cross the Earth’s orbit similar to that of 1862 Apollo. Radar and photometric estimates put it between 970m - 2.2km across. It has been followed since 1999-09-28 across 1288 recorded observations. JPL classifies it as a potentially hazardous asteroid, a label driven by its size and how close its orbit comes to ours — not by a predicted impact.
