8845 (1990 RD) is a large asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 1990 RD as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1990 RD orbits the sun every 1,780 days (4.87 years), coming as close as 2.23 AU and reaching as far as 3.52 AU from the sun. 1990 RD is about 11.9 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the city of Cleveland, Ohio.
1990 RD's orbit is 1.24 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.
1990 RD's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 14, 1990. It was last officially observed on June 26, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 2,303 observations used to determine its orbit.
