The near-Earth asteroid 2003 YT1 was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey on December 18 2003 (MPEC 2003-Y30). With an Absolute Magnitude H=16.2 and a Minimum Orbit Intersection Distance MOID=0.004 AU (~1.5 lunar distances) the object is considered a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA). During the discovery apparition delay-doppler radar imaging at Arecibo and optical photometric observations at the Modra and Ondrejov Observatories independently confirmed 2003 YT1 to be a binary asteroid (IAUC 8336).
