It was discovered by the Spacewatch survey at Kitt Peak National Observatory on 22 May 1998. Description 1998 KG 3 is an Amor asteroid, because its perihelion is less than 1.3 AU and does not cross Earth's orbit. The asteroid measures approximately 100–240 meters in diameter. Its orbit is within a region of stability where bodies may survive for the age of the Solar System, and hence it may have formed near its current orbit.Evans, N. W. & Tabachnik, S. (1999).

Between 1900 and 2200 its closest approach to Earth is more than 0.12 AU.JPL close-approach data Retrieved 2011-09-05 See also (225312) 1996 XB 27 (251732) 1998 HG 49 References External links 350462 350462 1998KG3 350462 (350462) 1998 KG 3 350462 350462 350462 19980522
