30102 (2000 FC1) is a large asteroid that shares Jupiter's orbit around the sun. NASA JPL has not classified 2000 FC1 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2000 FC1 orbits the sun every 4,410 days (12.07 years), coming as close as 5.05 AU and reaching as far as 5.48 AU from the sun. 2000 FC1 is about 36.4 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Houston.
The rotation of 2000 FC1 has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 23.95 hours.
2000 FC1's orbit is 4.12 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.
2000 FC1's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 14, 1953. It was last officially observed on April 10, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 2,224 observations used to determine its orbit.
