438028 (2004 EH96) is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2004 EH96 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2004 EH96 orbits the sun every 89,500 days (245.04 years), coming as close as 28.35 AU and reaching as far as 49.97 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2004 EH96 is probably between 66.459 to 148.607 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Delaware.
2004 EH96's orbit is 27.40 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.
2004 EH96's orbit is determined by observations dating back to May 4, 2000. It was last officially observed on June 6, 2019. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 33 observations used to determine its orbit.
