67246 (2000 ED70) is a large asteroid that orbits between Mars and Jupiter in the outer reaches of the main asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 2000 ED70 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2000 ED70 orbits the sun every 2,870 days (7.86 years), coming as close as 3.19 AU and reaching as far as 4.72 AU from the sun. 2000 ED70 is about 23.3 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Indianapolis.
2000 ED70's orbit is 2.22 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 ED70's orbit is determined by observations dating back to March 29, 1984. It was last officially observed on May 3, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 1,925 observations used to determine its orbit.
