120174

120174 is a small, asteroid located in the outer region of the asteroid belt, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was discovered on September 16, 1999, by the Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research (LINEAR) survey at the Lincoln Laboratory's Experimental Test Site near Socorro, New Mexico. The asteroid is classified as a main-belt asteroid, which means it orbits the Sun primarily between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

The asteroid has an estimated diameter of about 0.3 kilometers. It orbits the Sun with a period of approximately 1,590 days, with an orbital eccentricity of about 0.16. The asteroid's orbit has an inclination of about 2 degrees with respect to the ecliptic, which is the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun.

120174 has an absolute magnitude of about 15.5, which is a measure of its brightness. The asteroid's spectral type is classified as X, which indicates that it is likely composed of carbonaceous material.

There is no information available about any named features on the asteroid's surface. The asteroid's rotation period is not known, and its shape is assumed to be roughly spherical due to its small size.

120174 is not a potentially hazardous object, as it does not come close to Earth's orbit. It is designated as a main-belt asteroid, and its orbit is stable and well-understood. There are no known moons or other significant objects orbiting 120174.
