{{mp|(285263) 1998 QE|2}}, provisional designation {{mp|1998 QE|2}}, is a dark asteroid and synchronous binary system, classified as near-Earth object and potentially hazardous asteroid of the Amor group, approximately 3 kilometers in diameter.[12] It was discovered on 19 August 1998, by astronomers of the LINEAR program at Lincoln Laboratory's Experimental Test Site near Socorro, New Mexico, in the United States.[2] Its sub-kilometer minor-planet moon was discovered by radar on 30 May 2013.[8]{{efn|name=lcdb-Brozovic 2013b}}

Classification and orbital characteristics

As an Amor asteroid the orbit of {{mp|1998 QE|2}} is entirely beyond Earth's orbit. The asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.0–3.8 AU once every 3 years and 9 months (1,378 days; semi-major axis of 2.42 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.57 and an inclination of 13° with respect to the ecliptic. The Earth minimum orbit intersection distance with the orbit of the asteroid is {{convert|0.035|AU|km mi|abbr=on|lk=on}}, which translates into 13.4 lunar distances. As with many members of the Amor group, this asteroid has an aphelion beyond the orbit of Mars (at 1.66 AU) which also makes it a Mars-crosser.

The sooty surface of {{mp|1998 QE|2}} suggested that it might have previously been a comet that experienced a close encounter with the Sun.[27] However, the Tisserand parameter with respect to Jupiter (TJ=3.2) does not make it obvious whether {{mp|1998 QE|2}} was ever a comet, since cometary TJ values are typically below 3.[10]

Earth approach

On May 31, 2013, {{mp|1998 QE|2}} approached within {{convert|0.039|AU|km mi|abbr=on|lk=off}} (15 lunar distances) of Earth at 20:59 UT (4:59 pm EDT).[29] This was the closest approach the asteroid will make to Earth for at least the next two centuries.[30] It is a very strong radar target for Goldstone from May 30 to June 9 and will be one for Arecibo from June 6 to June 12.[10] At its closest approach the asteroid had an apparent magnitude of 11 and therefore required a small telescope to be seen.[10]

Integrating the orbital solution shows the asteroid passed {{convert|0.08|AU|km mi|abbr=on|lk=off}} from Earth on June 8, 1975,[29] with an apparent magnitude of about 13.9.[34] The next notable close approach will be May 27, 2221, when the asteroid will pass Earth at a distance of {{convert|0.038|AU|km mi|abbr=on|lk=off}}.[10]

Satellite

Goldstone radar observations on May 29, 2013 discovered that {{mp|1998 QE|2}} is orbited by a minor-planet moon approximately 600–800 meters in diameter.[8][37]{{efn|name=lcdb-Brozovic 2013b}} In radar images, the satellite appears brighter than {{mp|1998 QE|2}} because it is rotating significantly more slowly, which compresses the radar return of the satellite along the Doppler axis. This makes the satellite appear narrow and bright compared to {{mp|1998 QE|2}}.[38] The satellite orbits the primary every 32 hours with a maximum separation of {{convert|6.4|km|sp=us}}.[39] Once the satellite's orbit is well determined, astronomers and astrophysicists will be able to determine the mass and density of {{mp|1998 QE|2}}.

Physical characteristics

Surface, albedo and composition

The surface of {{mp|1998 QE|2}} is covered with a sooty substance, making it optically dark with a geometric albedo of 0.06,[10] meaning it absorbs 94% of the light that hits it, which is indicative for a carbonaceous surface of a C-type asteroid. The asteroid is covered with craters and is dark, red, and primitive.[41]

Diameter

With a diameter between 2.7 and 3.2 kilometers, {{mp|1998 QE|2}} is one of largest known potentially hazardous asteroid (see PHA-list).[42] Conversely, the Collaborative Asteroid Lightcurve Link assumes a standard albedo for stony asteroids of 0.20 and calculates a diameter of 1.08 kilometers based on an absolute magnitude of 17.2.[9]
