Using the Solar System Barycenter as the orbital frame of reference, 2014 FE72's extremely elongated orbit (eccentricity = 0.98) has a perihelion of 36.1 AU, an aphelion of ~4,050 AU and a barycentric orbital period of ~92,400 years.[3] The latter values are the largest known for any Solar System body that is not a long-period comet.[n 1] Based on the barycentric orbital period, 2014 FE72 takes roughly 5 times longer than Sedna to orbit the Sun.[10]
2014 FE72 last passed through perihelion around late 1965.[2]
