2003 UA292 is a very large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2003 UA292 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2003 UA292 orbits the sun every 117,000 days (320.33 years), coming as close as 39.77 AU and reaching as far as 53.75 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2003 UA292 is probably between 161.642 to 361.443 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Maryland.
2003 UA292's orbit is 38.80 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 UA292's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Oct. 22, 2003. It was last officially observed on Nov. 20, 2003. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 4 observations used to determine its orbit.
