15883 (1997 CR29) is a large asteroid whose orbit extends beyond the orbit of Neptune. NASA JPL has not classified 1997 CR29 as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
1997 CR29 orbits the sun every 117,000 days (320.33 years), coming as close as 36.77 AU and reaching as far as 56.79 AU from the sun. Based on its brightness and the way it reflects light, 1997 CR29 is probably between 99.668 to 222.864 kilometers in diameter, making it larger than 99% of asteroids, very roughly comparable in size to the U.S. state of Connecticut.
1997 CR29's orbit is 35.80 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.
1997 CR29's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Feb. 3, 1997. It was last officially observed on March 16, 2018. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 34 observations used to determine its orbit.
