141577 (2002 GS149) is a large asteroid that shares Jupiter's orbit around the sun. NASA JPL has not classified 2002 GS149 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2002 GS149 orbits the sun every 4,400 days (12.05 years), coming as close as 5.01 AU and reaching as far as 5.50 AU from the sun. 2002 GS149 is about 14.5 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Cleveland, Ohio.
The rotation of 2002 GS149 has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 58.84 hours.
2002 GS149's orbit is 4.01 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.
2002 GS149's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 20, 1995. It was last officially observed on April 13, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 682 observations used to determine its orbit.
