13183 (1996 TW) is a large asteroid that shares Jupiter's orbit around the sun. NASA JPL has not classified 1996 TW as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1996 TW orbits the sun every 4,360 days (11.94 years), coming as close as 4.76 AU and reaching as far as 5.69 AU from the sun. 1996 TW is about 41.5 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the U.S. state of Rhode Island.
The rotation of 1996 TW has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 20.23 hours.
1996 TW's orbit is 3.77 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.
1996 TW's orbit is determined by observations dating back to March 31, 1992. It was last officially observed on April 22, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 3,881 observations used to determine its orbit.
