3200 Phaethon (1983 TB) is object. It was discovered by Simon Green on 11 October 1983 from images from the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS).

The orbit of Bacchus varies from about 0.14 to 2.4 AU, which makes Phaethon cross the orbits of all four of the inner planets.

Phaethon is about 6.13 km × 4.40 km × 0.06 km, mean radius is about 5.8 km.

3200 Phaethon in Orbiter

Phaethon was introduced to Orbiter with the release of Mercury_Crosser.zip in June 2005.

Note that the landing surface as given in the config file is spherical, but the visual of Icarus is not, if you land, you will likely be above or below the visual surface.
