Asteroid 2867, also known as 1981 EA, is a small celestial body located in the Asteroid Belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was discovered on March 1, 1981, by astronomers at the Palomar Observatory in California. This asteroid is classified as a member of the Apollo group, which are near-Earth asteroids that have orbits crossing that of Earth. With a diameter of approximately 1.5 kilometers, Asteroid 2867 is relatively small compared to other asteroids. Its orbit takes it around the Sun every 1.5 years, and it has a highly elliptical path. The study of such asteroids helps scientists understand the formation of our solar system and the potential risks they may pose to Earth.
