The Aten asteroids are a group of asteroids, whose orbit brings them into proximity with Earth. Aten asteroids are defined by having a semi-major axis of less than one astronomical unit (AU), the (roughly) average distance from the Earth to the Sun. A near-Earth object (NEO) is any small Solar System body whose orbit brings it into proximity with Earth. NEAs have orbits that lie partly between 0.983 and 1.3 AU away from the Sun.
A near-Earth object is one whose orbit brings it away from Earth.
