15789 (1993 SC) is a dwarf planet whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 1993 SC as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1993 SC orbits the sun every 91,900 days (251.61 years), coming as close as 32.41 AU and reaching as far as 47.29 AU from the sun. 1993 SC is about 328.0 kilometers in diameter, making it one of the largest objects, comparable in size to Iceland.
1993 SC's orbit is 31.40 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 SC's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 23, 1993. It was last officially observed on Jan. 19, 2020. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 146 observations used to determine its orbit.
