2014 XY40 is a dwarf planet whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2014 XY40 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2014 XY40 orbits the sun every 120,000 days (328.54 years), coming as close as 40.87 AU and reaching as far as 54.31 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2014 XY40 is probably between 256.186 to 572.849 kilometers in diameter, making it one of the largest objects, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Virginia.
2014 XY40's orbit is 39.90 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 XY40's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Dec. 15, 2014. It was last officially observed on Oct. 31, 2021. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 71 observations used to determine its orbit.
