Earth gets a new mini moon for two months
Earth will get a 'mini-moon' this month, but it's only visiting
An asteroid will pass so close to Earth on Sept. 29 that it will temporarily be captured by gravity and be our planetary companion for nearly two months.
Earth to gain temporary 'mini moon' this autumn
Scientists predict that the asteroid 'mini moon' will re-enter Earth's orbit again in 2055. This is due to its orbit being similar to that of our planet. Calculations show that the asteroid will return to circle Earth in 2055. This is not an unprecedented event as two mini moon events were recorded previously, one in 1981 and 2022.
Earth is expected to have a Mini Moon named Asteroid 2024 PT5 till Late November.
Asteroids from the Earth pass by all the time but we are expecting a friendly visitor staying around for the next couple months.
