(163133) 2002 CV13

163133 (2002 CV13) is a mid-sized asteroid orbiting between Mars and Jupiter in the main portion of the asteroid belt. NASA JPL has not classified 2002 CV13 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.

2002 CV13 orbits the sun every 1,350 days (3.70 years), coming as close as 2.07 AU and reaching as far as 2.72 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 2002 CV13 is probably between 1.272 to 2.845 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to Mount Everest.

No Close Approaches
2002 CV13's orbit is 1.08 AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that there is an extremely wide berth between this asteroid and Earth at all times.

Orbital simulations conducted by NASA JPL's CNEOS do not show any close approaches to Earth.

Images and Observations
2002 CV13's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Sept. 22, 2000. It was last officially observed on Jan. 4, 2020. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 295 observations used to determine its orbit.

Accessibility and Exploration
This asteroid is not considered a viable target for human exploration by the NHATS study.
