The Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA) 2007 MK13 was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on June 21 2007 (MPEC 2007-M37). With a likely diameter between 200 m < D < 600 m, and with a Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance MOID = 0.032 AU, the NEA has been designated as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) by the Minor Planet Center. We took advantage of the object's well-placed 2009 apparition to obtain Bessel BVRI colors and rotational light-curve information over the course of two photometric nights at the JPL Table Mountain 0.6-m telescope (TMO).
