2020 KT55 is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2020 KT55 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2020 KT55 orbits the sun every 143,000 days (391.51 years), coming as close as 33.24 AU and reaching as far as 74.02 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2020 KT55 is probably between 43.307 to 96.837 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Rhode Island.
2020 KT55's orbit is 32.20 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 KT55's orbit is determined by observations dating back to May 28, 2020. It was last officially observed on June 25, 2020. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 18 observations used to determine its orbit.
