Ivavladis

Key Facts

• Categorized as a Main-belt Asteroid
• Comparable in size to the island of Manhattan (4.16 km diameter)
• Not a Near Earth Object
• Not a Potentially Hazardous Object
• See orbit simulation

Overview

Ivavladis is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified Ivavladis as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.

Ivavladis orbits the sun every 1,370 days (3.75 years), coming as close as 2.08 AU and reaching as far as 2.74 AU from the sun. Ivavladis is about 4.2 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the island of Manhattan.

The rotation of Ivavladis has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 43.92 hours.

No Close Approaches

Ivavladis's orbit is 1.08 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.

Images and Observations

Ivavladis's orbit is determined by observations dating back to April 4, 1949. It was last officially observed on April 16, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 3,090 observations used to determine its orbit.

Accessibility and Exploration

This asteroid is not considered a viable target for human exploration by the NHATS study.
