129322 (2005 TN45) is a mid-sized asteroid with an orbit that crosses the orbit of Mars. NASA JPL has not classified 2005 TN45 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2005 TN45 orbits the sun every 1,260 days (3.45 years), coming as close as 1.66 AU and reaching as far as 2.91 AU from the sun. 2005 TN45 is about 2.6 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to Mount Everest.
2005 TN45's orbit is 0.69 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that there is a very 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.
2005 TN45's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 24, 1960. It was last officially observed on Dec. 20, 2022. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 646 observations used to determine its orbit.
