Here is the orbit of it:

also https://www.nsf.gov/news/new-dwarf-planet-candidate-discover...

Ephemeris listing, if anyone knows how to get RA/Dec from it:
https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/tools/sbdb_lookup.html#/?sstr=2026%...
Go to https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons/app.html#/
Edit target body to "2026 ED138"
Click "Generate ephemeris"
About RA=18:11:01 DEC=-42d 14m 31s today
18 11 01.74 -42 14 31.4
Bigger than Ceres, btw. Who knows many of those drift in icy, cold darkness of Kuiper belt and beyond.
