is an Apophis-sized asteroid that was discovered on 11 October 2021 when it was from Earth. This potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) spends most or its orbit closer to from the Sun as objects orbit more slowly when near aphelion (furthest distance from the Sun). was rated with a Torino scale of 1 from 31 October 2021 to 4 November 2021 for a potential impact on 27 March 2081. As the observation arc became longer the nominal distance from Earth became further on the potential impact date.
