The Discovery and Characterization of Minimoon 2024 PT5

The Discovery and Characterization of Minimoon 2024 PT5

Minimoons are asteroids that become temporarily captured by the Earth–Moon system. We present the discovery of 2024 PT _5 , a minimoon discovered by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System Sutherland telescope on 2024 August 7. The minimoon with heliocentric semimajor axis, a ~ 1.01 au, a...
