(137108) 1999 AN10 is a kilometer-length near-Earth asteroid and potentially hazardous asteroid of the Apollo group. It was discovered by LINEAR on 13 January 1999.[5]
On 7 August 2027, this asteroid will pass at about 0.00261 astronomical unit|AU (390,000 km; 243,000 mi; 1.02 LD) of the Earth's center.[6][1][7][8] During the close approach, it is expected to peak at about apparent magnitude 7.3,[9] and will be visible in binoculars.
1999 AN10 has a well-determined orbit with an observation arc of 65 years.[1] It was found by Andreas Doppler and Arno Gnädig in precovery images from 1955.[1] When astronomers had an observation arc of the object of 123 days, computations gave a 1 in 10 million chance it would return on an impact trajectory in 2039.[10]
On 7 August 1946, the asteroid passed 0.00625 astronomical unit|AU (935,000 km; 581,000 mi) from Earth and then 0.00404 AU (604,000 km; 376,000 mi) from the Moon.[1]
