(434326) 2004 JG 6 is the second known apohele asteroid after (163693) Atira . Its orbit is entirely within earth orbit . 2004 JG 6 crosses the orbits of Venus and Mercury . Its orbital period is only 6 months. This means that (434326) 2004 JG 6 has the shortest known travel time of an asteroid . The major semi-axis of the orbit is smaller than that of Venus; the mean distance to the sun is slightly larger due to the high eccentricity. The asteroid's diameter is estimated to be 500 to 1000 meters.
