Discovered in 1981, with a lower MOID of 0.05 UA and an absolute magnitude of 14.1, it is classified as a potentially dangerous object.
This photo is made up of 17 shots shot with a canon eos 70 D direct focus on a Celestron 8 "+ gear / corrector f / 6.3, esp 30", ISO 1600, focal length 1200 mm.
The asteroid was about 7,088,390 km from the Earth. It was a beautiful spot that moves between the stars!
