(523727) 2014 NW₆₅ (provisional designation 2014 NW₆₅) is a large centaur from the outer Solar System, approximately 220 kilometers (140 miles) in diameter. It was discovered on 14 July 2010 by astronomers with the Pan-STARRS-1 survey at Haleakala Observatory, Hawaii, in the United States.^[1] The minor planet was numbered in 2018 and has not been named.

2014 NW₆₅ is a member of the centaurs, an inward-moving population of bodies transiting from the Kuiper belt to the group of Jupiter-family comets. Their eccentric orbits are often in between those of Jupiter and Neptune, that is, they have a semi-major axis of typically 5.5 to 30.1 AU. Centaurs are cometary-like bodies. They have a short dynamical lifetime due to the perturbing forces exerted on them by the Solar System's outer planets.

It orbits the Sun at a distance of 11.2–35.4 AU once every 112 years and 4 months (41,044 days; semi-major axis of 23.29 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.52 and an inclination of 20° with respect to the ecliptic.^[2] It has 3 precovery observations back to 2009.^[1]

This minor planet was numbered by the Minor Planet Center on 25 September 2018, receiving the number (523727) in the minor planet catalog (M.P.C. 111779).^[6] As of 2023^[update], it has not been named.^[1] According to the established naming conventions, it will be named after one of the many centaurs from Greek mythology, which are creatures with the upper body of a human and the lower body and legs of a horse.^[7]
