136204 (2003 WL7) is a large asteroid with an orbit between Jupiter and Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2003 WL7 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2003 WL7 orbits the sun every 33,000 days (90.35 years), coming as close as 14.92 AU and reaching as far as 25.32 AU from the sun. 2003 WL7 is about 118.0 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the U.S. state of Delaware.
The rotation of 2003 WL7 has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 8.24 hours.
2003 WL7's orbit is 14.00 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.
2003 WL7's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Oct. 11, 2001. It was last officially observed on March 26, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 230 observations used to determine its orbit.
