9888 (1995 CD) is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 1995 CD as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1995 CD orbits the sun every 1,590 days (4.35 years), coming as close as 2.52 AU and reaching as far as 2.81 AU from the sun. 1995 CD is about 7.0 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, comparable in size to the San Francisco Bay.
The rotation of 1995 CD has been observed. It completes a rotation on its axis every 4.96 hours.
1995 CD's orbit is 1.50 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.
1995 CD's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 20, 1982. It was last officially observed on June 22, 2023. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 3,125 observations used to determine its orbit.
