14265 (2000 AV142) is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 2000 AV142 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2000 AV142 orbits the sun every 1,980 days (5.42 years), coming as close as 2.80 AU and reaching as far as 3.37 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2000 AV142 is probably between 5.579 to 12.475 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the San Francisco Bay.
2000 AV142's orbit is 1.80 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.
2000 AV142's orbit is determined by observations dating back to April 26, 1979. It was last officially observed on May 21, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 2,616 observations used to determine its orbit.
