528381 (2008 ST291) is a dwarf planet whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2008 ST291 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2008 ST291 orbits the sun every 371,000 days (1,015.74 years), coming as close as 42.74 AU and reaching as far as 159.26 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2008 ST291 is probably between 368.600 to 824.214 kilometers in diameter, making it one of the largest objects, very roughly comparable in size to Great Britain.
2008 ST291's orbit is 41.80 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.
2008 ST291's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 24, 2008. It was last officially observed on Sept. 24, 2022. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 103 observations used to determine its orbit.
