(2019 QV5)
Tracked by NASA JPL Near-Earth Object Web Service (NeoWs), (2019 QV5) is a Unreported by NASA NeoWs body measuring between 257.37m and 575.49m in diameter. On 2026-11-04, it completes a cislunar approach at 150.72 Lunar Distances (57,960,863.8 km) with a relative heliocentric velocity of 3.56 km/s.
(2019 QV5) (JPL ID 3843683) is a Unreported by NASA NeoWs Near-Earth Asteroid spanning 257.4m–575.5m (mean 416.4m). On 2026-11-04, it transits Earth's cislunar surveillance sector at 150.716 Lunar Distances (57,960,864 km) with a relative velocity of 3.56 km/s and a theoretical kinetic energy reserve of 163.08 megatons TNT. Its well-constrained heliocentric ephemeris passes safely outside Earth capture corridors while serving as an orbital calibration target.
