Near-Earth object / ID: 2089959
89959 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 1.3km - 2.9km across. It has been followed since 1954-07-10 across 1971 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.
