13550 (1992 EX9) is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 1992 EX9 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1992 EX9 orbits the sun every 1,520 days (4.16 years), coming as close as 2.08 AU and reaching as far as 3.08 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 1992 EX9 is probably between 2.901 to 6.487 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the island of Manhattan.
1992 EX9's orbit is 1.10 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that there is an extremely wide berth between this asteroid and Earth at all times.
Orbital simulations conducted by NASA JPL's CNEOS do not show any close approaches to Earth.
1992 EX9's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 25, 1992. It was last officially observed on June 23, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 1,791 observations used to determine its orbit.
