Apparently it will come within 1.7 AU of Mars and 1.9 AU of Earth.

I'm not sure if they've figured out how big it is, or what other analysis they can do of it.

Eye-balling the animation someone else link to, it looks like it will be in our solar system area for about half a year.

I have no idea if we have telescopes good enough for this. Does anyone else know?
