2014 UL277 is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2014 UL277 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2014 UL277 orbits the sun every 122,000 days (334.02 years), coming as close as 43.30 AU and reaching as far as 52.76 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2014 UL277 is probably between 127.807 to 285.785 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Massachusetts.
2014 UL277's orbit is 42.30 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.
2014 UL277's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Oct. 21, 2014. It was last officially observed on Jan. 5, 2018. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 7 observations used to determine its orbit.
