2013 FW13 is an Apollo asteroid and a potentially hazardous object, that was discovered on March 23, 2013 by the Catalina Sky Survey. Further observation of its orbital calculation was made by amateur astronomer Mohammed Alsunni of Sudan. [3]

2013 FW13 is a potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) since its minimum orbit intersection distance (MOID) is less than 0.05 AU and its diameter is estimated to be greater than ~150 meters. The Earth MOID is 0.013  AU (1,900,000  km; 1,200,000  mi). [2] On 18 September 2024 it will safely pass about 0.02 AU (3,000,000 km; 1,900,000 mi) from Earth. [2] [4]

The Absolute magnitude of the asteroid is 21.70 [5] giving the object an approximate diameter of 120–270 meters. [6]
