The object orbits the Sun but makes slow close approaches to the Earth–Moon system. Between 29 September (19:54 UTC) and 25 November 2024 (16:43 UTC) (a period of 1 month and 27 days) [4] it passed just outside Earth's Hill sphere (roughly 0.01 AU [1.5 million km; 0.93 million mi]) at a low relative velocity (in the range 0.002 km/s (4.5 mph) – 0.439 km/s [980 mph]) and will become ...
2024 ON is a near-Earth object with a length around 350 meters [2] that flew past Earth on 17 September 2024 at a distance of 620,000 miles (1,000,000 km). [3] It was discovered by ATLAS-MLO, Mauna Kea on 27 July 2024. [2] Radar observations showed that 2024 ON is a contact binary.
2024 MK is a near-Earth object with a diameter around 150 meters that flew past Earth on June 29, 2024. [1] It was discovered by ATLAS South Africa, Sutherland on 16 June 2024. [2] This asteroid travels in both the main-belt and in the near-Earth region. It passed Earth on 29 June 2024 at a distance of 184,000 miles (295,000 kilometers).

The first two objects that were detected and had their Earth-MOID calculated before Earth impact were the small asteroids 2008 TC 3 and 2014 AA. 2014 AA is listed with a MOID of 0.00000045 AU (67 km; 42 mi), [5] and is the second smallest MOID calculated for an Apollo asteroid after 2020 QY 2 with an Earth-MOID of 0.00000039 AU (58 km; 36 mi).
C/2024 L5 (ATLAS) is a comet that was discovered on 14 June 2024 as A117uUD by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), South Africa, Sutherland. It will reach perihelion on 10 March 2025 at 3.432 AU (513.4 million km ) from the Sun. [ 4 ] [ 5 ]
2024-Jan-25 [2] Jupiter MOID: 0.008 AU (1,200,000 km) [3] 144P/Kushida is a periodic comet discovered in January, 1994, by Yoshio Kushida at the Yatsugatake South ...
The nominal orbit of 252P/LINEAR [2001] (K102/1) was thrown into the near-Earth region by Jupiter in 1800s, and probably this is the first time the comet is so close to the Sun. [11] Since its Jupiter MOID is currently 0.2 AU, [4] Jupiter remains the primary factor in its orbital disruption. The comet will approach Jupiter at 0.76 AU on 22 ...
