Near-Earth object / ID: 2087684
87684 is a near-Earth object of the ATE orbit class — Near-Earth asteroid orbits similar to that of 2062 Aten. Radar and photometric estimates put it between 1.7km - 3.8km across. It has been followed since 1977-10-07 across 2544 recorded observations. Its next approach to Earth is 2027-Sep-17 00:27, passing at 56.705 LD. 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.
