rotation period of 17.08 hours.[4][a]

Description

1999 RD32 orbits the Sun at a distance of 0.6–4.7 

semi-major axis of 2.64 AU). Its orbit has a high eccentricity of 0.77 and an inclination of 7° with respect to the ecliptic.[1]

The asteroid's observation arc begins with a precovery taken at Palomar Observatory in January 1995.[3] It is known that 1999 RD32 passed 0.0093 AU (1,390,000 km; 860,000 mi) from Earth on 27 August 1969.[10] During the 1969 close approach the asteroid reached about apparent magnitude 8.8.[11] The similarly sized 4179 Toutatis also reached that brightness in September 2004. It passed less than 0.007 AU (1,000,000 km; 650,000 mi) from asteroid 29 Amphitrite on 17 January 1939.[1]

contact binary.[5] About 10–15% of near-Earth asteroids larger than 200 meters are expected to be contact binary asteroids with two lobes in mutual contact.[12]
