Earth 2nd Moon to Beeing Lately Asteroid 2024 PT5 All Main Points Right Here

Today is a very special day for those interested in space events. Today the earth is going to get its second ‘moon’. That is, the way the Moon is present close to our earth and is orbiting it, similarly another rock will come close to the class of the earth and start revolving around it. It is actually a small asteroid named Asteroid 2024 PT5. So will this asteroid hit the earth? If not, what will happen to it? Let’s know some very special things about this astronomical event.

Asteroid 2024 PT5 is coming close to the earth today. It will revolve around the influence of the earth’s gravity from September 29 to November 25. That is, the earth will now have 2 moon. However, it is very small in size and is only 33 feet size. According to the report, it will not be seen with naked eyes. The second important thing is that the way the moon shines at night, it will not shine in that way. To see this, you will need special equipment like telescope etc. Even ordinary telescope will not be able to see it. It can only be seen online. Various space agencies will capture it.

ASTEROID 2024 PT5 actually comes from Arjun asteroid belt. There are many esteredroids in this belt whose orbit is said to be the same as Earth. NASA first discovered this asteroid on 7 August. It was discovered by NASA’s Estroid Terrestrial Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS).

It is also interesting that it will not put even a whole round of the earth. Since the gravity of the Earth is very powerful, its orbit will change a slight change and after that it will leave the orbit of the Earth. According to the BBC, many esteoids also come up to about 45 million kilometers of the earth. Similarly, when a small asteroid like 2024 PT5 comes to a slow speed (less than 3540 km per hour), its gravity binds it and it starts moving around it. The same incident is going to happen today.

Such incidents have happened before this. In 1981, an asteroid named 2022 NX1 came close to the earth and started moving around it. After that it again came close to the earth in 2022. Many times these asteroids are so small that even space scientists are not able to come.
