Comet 297P/Beshore is an object whose orbit brings it closer to the sun than Jupiter. NASA JPL has not classified 297P/Beshore as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
297P/Beshore orbits the sun every 2,380 days (6.52 years), coming as close as 2.41 AU and reaching as far as 4.56 AU from the sun.
297P/Beshore's orbit is 1.41 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.
297P/Beshore's orbit is determined by observations dating back to March 20, 2001. It was last officially observed on June 18, 2014. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 569 observations used to determine its orbit.
