The incoming asteroid has been identified as 2000 kA. As reported in CNEOS's database, this asteroid is currently orbiting space at an average velocity of 30,000 mph. CNEOS estimated that 2000 KA is about 886 feet wide, twice as large as the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. The 2000 KA was first seen on May 22, 2000. After studying the asteroid's trajectory, NASA discovered that it follows a long path around the Sun that extends beyond the orbit of Mars. As the asteroid travels within the solar system, it sometimes crosses the Earth's path.

NASA has noted that due to the Earth-intersection orbit of the asteroid, it was classified as a member of the Apollo family of space rocks. Its orbit, along with the asteroid's sheer size, are some of the reasons 2000 KA was described as "extremely dangerous".
