Abstract
The asteroid 2005 YU55 was observed to determine its distance from Earth. Methods for the determination of the parallax angle were described. The data we obtained gave a mean value of parallax of 5.000 "/ arc corresponding to Earth-Asteroid distance of 2 330 383 km, with a difference of ~ -69 000 km from the provided ephemeris. Further more, it has been possible to record a dropping in brightness of the asteroid due to its estrangement
