2020 KE55 is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2020 KE55 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2020 KE55 orbits the sun every 118,000 days (323.07 years), coming as close as 42.59 AU and reaching as far as 51.69 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2020 KE55 is probably between 22.210 to 49.664 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the city of Indianapolis.
2020 KE55's orbit is 41.60 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.
2020 KE55's orbit is determined by observations dating back to May 29, 2020. It was last officially observed on Aug. 14, 2020. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 12 observations used to determine its orbit.
