Near-Earth object / ID: 2163697

Object: 163697

163697 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 256m - 573m across. It has been followed since 2003-03-12 across 224 recorded observations. Its next approach to Earth is 2040-Feb-16 05:29, passing at 47.465 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.
