Comet P/2010 E2 (Jarnac) 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 Jarnac as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
Jarnac orbits the sun every 9,280 days (25.41 years), coming as close as 2.40 AU and reaching as far as 14.88 AU from the sun. Its orbit is highly elliptical.
Jarnac's orbit is 1.40 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.
Jarnac's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 17, 2010. It was last officially observed on June 25, 2010. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 344 observations used to determine its orbit.
