2022 EB5 is a very small asteroid whose orbit crosses the orbit of Earth. NASA JPL has classified 2022 EB5 as a "Near Earth Asteroid" due to its orbit's proximity to Earth, but it is not considered potentially hazardous because computer simulations have not indicated any imminent likelihood of future collision.
2022 EB5 orbits the sun every 1,740 days (4.76 years), coming as close as 0.89 AU and reaching as far as 4.77 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2022 EB5 is probably between 0.001 to 0.003 kilometers in diameter, making it a small to average asteroid, very roughly comparable in size to a school bus or smaller.
2022 EB5's orbit is 0.00 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that its orbit is very close to Earth's orbit.
Orbital simulations conducted by NASA JPL's CNEOS do not show any close approaches to Earth.
2022 EB5's orbit is determined by observations dating back to March 11, 2022. It was last officially observed on March 11, 2022. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 176 observations used to determine its orbit.
