Earth’s gravity has captured a new temporary companion, Asteroid 2024 PT5, which is roughly the size of a bus. The mini moon will orbit Earth for about two months before breaking free on November 25. It is not visible to the naked eye and requires advanced telescopes for observation. The asteroid belongs to the Arjuna asteroid belt.
Earth has two moons now, but is the ‘second moon’ visible from India?
