2013 YD169 is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2013 YD169 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2013 YD169 orbits the sun every 103,000 days (282.00 years), coming as close as 35.42 AU and reaching as far as 50.76 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2013 YD169 is probably between 75.955 to 169.840 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Delaware.
2013 YD169's orbit is 34.50 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.
2013 YD169's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Dec. 20, 2013. It was last officially observed on Sept. 26, 2017. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 19 observations used to determine its orbit.
