2015 KT174 is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 2015 KT174 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2015 KT174 orbits the sun every 137,000 days (375.09 years), coming as close as 37.89 AU and reaching as far as 65.99 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2015 KT174 is probably between 46.191 to 103.286 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Rhode Island.
2015 KT174's orbit is 36.90 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.
2015 KT174's orbit is determined by observations dating back to May 30, 2014. It was last officially observed on Aug. 26, 2017. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 34 observations used to determine its orbit.
