Comet 423P/Lemmon is an object whose orbit features a relatively short period, low inclination, and is controlled by Jupiter's gravitational effects. NASA JPL has not classified 423P/Lemmon as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
423P/Lemmon orbits the sun every 5,580 days (15.28 years), coming as close as 5.42 AU and reaching as far as 6.90 AU from the sun.
423P/Lemmon's orbit is 4.45 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.
423P/Lemmon's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 8, 2008. It was last officially observed on March 27, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 96 observations used to determine its orbit.
