2024 Pt5

On 29 September 2024, Earth briefly welcomed asteroid 2024 PT5 as a second moon. Discovered by NASA's ATLAS, this small asteroid will exit Earth's orbit by mid-November 2024. Its fleeting presence offers astronomers valuable insights into tracking mini-moons and potential asteroid threats. As scientists explore these transient companions, they unco...

The newly discovered mini-moon, 2024 PT5, entered Earth's orbit on September 29, 2024, and will remain until November 25. This small asteroid, measuring around 10 metres, provides a unique opportunity for researchers to study near-Earth objects and explore the viability of space mining. Experts believe that asteroids contain precious metals, which ...

On Sunday, 29th September, Earth captured a new "minimoon" known as 2024 PT5. The bus-sized asteroid, measuring 33 feet wide, is temporarily orbiting Earth for 57 days. Although it's a fascinating addition, the minimoon is too small to be seen with the naked eye or typical amateur telescopes. Researchers believe the asteroid originated from the Arj...

The Earth will embrace a new and temporary 'mini moon' tonight, with a connection to India's epic Mahabharat. Called "2024 PT5" it is just about ten meters in diameter and it will remain in the Earth's orbit for about 53 days.

The asteroid, named 2024 PT5, originates from the Arjuna asteroid belt, which contains rocks with orbits similar to Earth's.

Earth is set to capture a temporary second moon, asteroid 2024 PT5, starting September 29, 2024. This small asteroid, part of the Arjuna asteroid belt, will only remain in Earth’s orbit until November 25, 2024, before continuing its journey around the sun. Though not visible to the average observer, this rare event has piqued the interest of prof...

Asteroid 2024 PT5 will soon become Earth’s temporary second moon, entering orbit on September 29 and departing by November 25. While this mini-moon won't complete a full orbit, it will be caught in Earth’s gravitational pull for nearly two months. Unlike other celestial objects, this asteroid will be too dim to observe without advanced equipmen...

The temporary mini-moon of Earth, which will orbit our planet for 53 days, will not be visible to the naked eye, confirmed Dr AK Anil Kumar, head of ISRO's Network for Space Objects Tracking and Analysis (NETRA).

Earth might gain another Moon, a miniature one, due to a rare phenomenon called gravitational trapping. Carlos de la Fuente Marcos and Raúl de la Fuente Marcos, researchers from Universidad Complutense de Madrid, have announced an intriguing celestial event. A small asteroid, named 2024 PT5, is set to become Earth's temporary mini-moon for appro...

Earth's moon will soon have a temporary junior companion, an apparent mini moon revolving around our planet for about two months. In a rare event, an asteroid will be captured by Earth's gravity and will orbit the earth from Sept 29 to Nov 25.
