Fuente Marcos, Raúl de laFuente Marcos, Carlos2023-06-222023-06-222022-082515-517210.3847/2515-5172/ac8809https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/71956Low-velocity encounters between our planet and any near-Earth object (NEO) in an Earth-like orbit may induce its temporary capture as a mini-moon. Such mini-moon episodes could lead the NEO to complete one or more revolutions around Earth when gravitationally bound, a temporarily-captured orbiter, like in the cases of 2006 RH120 and 2020 CD3; sometimes not even one revolution is completed, a temporarily-captured flyby, like in the case of 1991 VG. Asteroid 2022 NX1 experienced a temporarilycaptured flyby in 1981, has had another one in 2022, and will become a temporarily-captured orbiter in 2051. This object occupies the edge of Earth’s co-orbital space and sometimes it approaches us following a horseshoe path.engAtribución 3.0 Españahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/journal articlehttps://doi.org/10.3847/2515-5172/ac8809open access523523.44Solar systemAsteroidsAstrofísica (Matemáticas)Astronomía (Matemáticas)21 Astronomía y Astrofísica21 Astronomía y Astrofísica
