Orbit and dynamics
Between its closest point (0.95 AU) and its farthest (1.21 AU), the heliocentric distance changes by 0.26 AU over every revolution.
One full revolution takes 1.12 yr (410 days), computed from the semi-major axis of 1.08 AU.
An eccentricity of 0.12 makes the orbit moderately elongated.
Its inclination of 1.05° keeps it close to the plane of the ecliptic.
By the vis-viva equation its orbital speed rises to 32.3 km/s at perihelion and falls to 25.4 km/s at aphelion.
Because q < 1 AU and Q > 1 AU, this orbit geometrically intersects the region of Earth's orbit.
Size and surface
Neither a measured diameter nor a reliable absolute magnitude is available for 2024 VO, so its physical size remains unconstrained.
Observation record and orbit quality
Astrometry from 24 individual observations underpins this orbit; the fit leaves an RMS residual of 0.7162 arcseconds.
Condition code U = 5 indicates a moderately constrained orbit; predictions decades ahead still carry noticeable uncertainty.
About these computed values
Orbital periods, perihelion and aphelion speeds, and diameter estimates on this page are computed by SpaceAtlas from the JPL SBDB orbital elements. They are derived quantities, not values copied from the source catalogue.
