A asteroid from 5 to 15 meters is called 2022 NX1 became new minimoon which from time to time will revolve around Earth after few years.
The space rock will return to Earth’s orbit between 2051 and 2052, but by 2070 it could collide with our planet.
What is known about the new minimoon
He 2022 NX1 it was discovered in the middle of last year in the mountains of Namibia. Now a group of Spanish scientists have published the results of their study of a rock from the Gran Telescopio of the Canary Islands.
According to this report, published in Astronomy and astrophysicsthe team ruled out the possibility that it was rocket debris or lunar debris.
The asteroid maintains a horseshoe-shaped orbit with co-orbital motions from Earth. According to calculations, the planet’s gravity causes it to deviate from its usual trajectory, causing the asteroid to orbit the planet for several years. Earth like a mini moon
This fact will be repeated in the coming decades, so that in the near future you will often hear about rock.
Collision?
The detail is that in 2070, calculations show that asteroid it will be on its way to impact the planet.
Its size is smaller than asteroid that caused the Chelyabinsk fireball would allow it to be a low-risk event, with a 70 percent chance that it would fall over the sea.
