2014 QZ111 is a mid-sized asteroid with an orbit between Jupiter and Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2014 QZ111 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2014 QZ111 orbits the sun every 15,500 days (42.44 years), coming as close as 1.64 AU and reaching as far as 22.72 AU from the sun. Its orbit is highly elliptical. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2014 QZ111 is probably between 1.624 to 3.631 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to Mount Everest.
Orbital simulations conducted by NASA JPL's CNEOS do not show any close approaches to Earth.
2014 QZ111's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Aug. 20, 2014. It was last officially observed on Aug. 31, 2014. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 10 observations used to determine its orbit.
