2025 FN7

2025 FN7 belongs to the Apollo group of near-Earth asteroids, whose orbits cross the path of Earth; with a semi-major axis of 1.015 AU it takes 1.02 yr to circle the Sun.

Orbit and dynamics

Between its closest point (0.767 AU) and its farthest (1.263 AU), the heliocentric distance changes by 0.496 AU over every revolution.

One full revolution takes 1.02 yr (373 days), computed from the semi-major axis of 1.015 AU.

An eccentricity of 0.245 makes the orbit moderately elongated.

The orbital plane is tilted 5.48° relative to the ecliptic.

By the vis-viva equation its orbital speed rises to 37.9 km/s at perihelion and falls to 23 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 2025 FN7, so its physical size remains unconstrained.

Observation record and orbit quality

Astrometry from 20 individual observations underpins this orbit; the fit leaves an RMS residual of 0.2919 arcseconds.

Condition code U = 6 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.
