@vt.physics: According to NASA scientists, Earth will capture a miniature, "second moon" this week. The new moon is a tiny asteroid dubbed 2024 PT5. It will start orbiting the planet in a horseshoe path and stay on this path for less than two months before escaping Earth's gravitational pull and going back to its regular orbit around the sun. #science #physics #shorts #science #news
