2026 JH₂ is a small near-Earth asteroid with a diameter between 15 and 35 metres.

It was discovered by the Mount Lemmon Survey in Tucson, Arizona on 10 May 2026. Classified as an Earth-crossing Apollo asteroid, 2026 JH₂ will pass no closer than 91,000 ± 4,500 kilometres from Earth on 18 May 2026, far enough to pose no threat. During its close approach to Earth, it will brighten to an apparent magnitude of up to 11.5, bright enough to be seen by a small telescope under dark skies.
