15777 (1993 LF) is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 1993 LF as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1993 LF orbits the sun every 1,490 days (4.08 years), coming as close as 2.27 AU and reaching as far as 2.83 AU from the sun. 1993 LF is about 9.9 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Boston.
The rotation of 1993 LF has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 2.66 hours.
1993 LF's orbit is 1.26 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.
1993 LF's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 4, 1951. It was last officially observed on Jan. 16, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 5,030 observations used to determine its orbit.
