88245 (2001 CH49) is a large asteroid that shares Jupiter's orbit around the sun. NASA JPL has not classified 2001 CH49 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
2001 CH49 orbits the sun every 4,410 days (12.07 years), coming as close as 4.65 AU and reaching as far as 5.88 AU from the sun. 2001 CH49 is about 11.1 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Cleveland, Ohio.
2001 CH49's orbit is 3.67 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.
2001 CH49's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 15, 1996. It was last officially observed on Jan. 11, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 688 observations used to determine its orbit.
