Feodosia is a large asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified Feodosia as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
Feodosia orbits the sun every 1,650 days (4.52 years), coming as close as 2.24 AU and reaching as far as 3.23 AU from the sun. Feodosia is about 62.2 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the U.S. state of Rhode Island.
The rotation of Feodosia has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 10.46 hours.
Feodosia's spectral type XC (Tholen) / Ch (SMASSII) indicates that it is likely to contain water, iron, nickel, cobalt, nitrogen, and ammonia.
Feodosia's orbit is 1.23 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.
Feodosia's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Nov. 29, 1924. It was last officially observed on July 1, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 4,965 observations used to determine its orbit.
