14394 (1990 SP15) is a large asteroid that orbits between Mars and Jupiter in the outer reaches of the main asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 1990 SP15 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1990 SP15 orbits the sun every 2,120 days (5.80 years), coming as close as 3.01 AU and reaching as far as 3.45 AU from the sun. 1990 SP15 is about 21.2 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Indianapolis.
1990 SP15's orbit is 2.03 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.
1990 SP15's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 18, 1990. It was last officially observed on June 23, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 3,322 observations used to determine its orbit.
