144908 (2004 YH32) is a mid-sized asteroid with an orbit between Jupiter and Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2004 YH32 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2004 YH32 orbits the sun every 8,510 days (23.30 years), coming as close as 3.54 AU and reaching as far as 12.77 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2004 YH32 is probably between 6.347 to 14.192 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the San Francisco Bay.
2004 YH32's orbit is 2.56 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.
2004 YH32's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Dec. 18, 2004. It was last officially observed on Jan. 15, 2007. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 178 observations used to determine its orbit.
