138815 (2000 TQ64) is a small asteroid whose orbit approaches the orbit of Earth but does not cross it. NASA JPL has classified 2000 TQ64 as a "Near Earth Asteroid" due to its orbit's proximity to Earth, but it is not considered potentially hazardous because computer simulations have not indicated any imminent likelihood of future collision.
2000 TQ64 orbits the sun every 1,100 days (3.01 years), coming as close as 1.29 AU and reaching as far as 2.89 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2000 TQ64 is probably between 0.668 to 1.493 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than ~97% of asteroids but small compared to large asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the Golden Gate Bridge.
2000 TQ64's orbit is 0.30 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that there is a 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.
2000 TQ64's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Oct. 7, 2000. It was last officially observed on Nov. 6, 2021. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 195 observations used to determine its orbit.
