Near-Earth object / ID: 2162825
162825 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 677m - 1.5km across. It has been followed since 2000-12-03 across 454 recorded observations. Its next approach to Earth is 2027-Mar-26 21:49, passing at 173.728 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.
