C/1885 X1 (Fabry) is a large comet with a trajectory through the solar system likely originating from the Oort Cloud. NASA JPL has not classified Fabry as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
Fabry orbits the sun every 0 days (0.00 years), coming as close as 0.72 AU and reaching as far as -3598.72 AU from the sun. Its orbit is highly elliptical. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, Fabry is probably between 2658.000 to 5943.469 kilometers in diameter, making it the largest asteroid/dwarf planet, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Alaska.
Fabry's orbit is 0.18 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that there is an 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.
Fabry's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Dec. 3, 1885. It was last officially observed on April 24, 1886. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 26 observations used to determine its orbit.
