2011 JY31

2011 JY31 is a near-Earth asteroid (NEA). It was discovered on May 6, 2011, by the Mount Lemmon Survey. It is classified as an Apollo asteroid, meaning its orbit crosses the Earth's orbit. Its orbital parameters indicate it poses a potential, though currently low, risk of future close approaches to Earth. The size of 2011 JY31 is estimated based on its absolute magnitude and assumed albedo, but more precise measurements would require direct observation. Its orbital path and future movements are continuously monitored by astronomers to refine risk assessments. The designation "2011 JY31" indicates it was the 829th asteroid discovered in the first half of May 2011.
