Notes:a A minor planet's dimensions may be described by x, y, and z axes instead of an (average) diameter due to its non-spherical, irregular shape. b Closest approach given in multiples of the minor planet's mean radius | ||||||||

Comet C/2013 A1 passed close by Mars in October 2014, closer than the Moon is to Earth.[6] As of early 2014 it was calculated to pass as close as {{convert|0.00087|AU|km mi|abbr=on|lk=off}}.[6] This was so close that the event was deemed dangerous to spacecraft in orbit around Mars.[7] Spacecraft that were active at that time included 2001 Mars Odyssey, Mars Express, MAVEN, Mars Orbiter Mission, and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter in Mars orbit – and two on the surface – Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity and the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity.
NASA's Lucy spacecraft is scheduled to tour several Jupiter trojans and one main-belt asteroid between 2025 and 2033.
