Guest moon is expected to enter our celestial neighborhood on Sept 29, where it may accompany our Moon for about two months
Ever wondered what would happen if Earth had two moons? Well, brace yourself to be amazed, as a "mini-moon" is on its way.
Earth is going to attract an asteroid into its orbit, which scientists are dubbing a "mini-moon." However, this asteroid's "crush" on our planet will not last more than a couple of months.
And don't get too excited about this news, because it's not something the naked eye can see. Only a special kind of telescope can catch sight of this scientific phenomenon, which will provide a valuable lesson to those fascinated by celestial objects.
The asteroid, called 2024 PT5, meets certain criteria to be classified as a mini-moon; otherwise, there is a stark difference between it and our beloved Moon.
Scientists say the celestial object is as large as a school bus, and God forbid, if an asteroid slightly larger than this size hits us, it could wipe out an entire city from the face of the Earth. But there’s no need to fret, as this isn’t going to happen, at least according to solid scientific calculations.
The celestial guest, expected to enter our cosmic neighbourhood on September 29, may accompany Earth's natural satellite for about two months.
It should be noted that dinosaurs went extinct after an asteroid about ten kilometres (much larger than the one under discussion) in diameter struck Earth over 66 million years ago.
Let’s delve deeper into understanding this once-in-a-blue-moon event with the Director of Space & Atmospheric Sciences at SUPARCO Karachi, Muhammad Ayyaz Ameen.
"The asteroid is about 11 meters (0.011km) in length as per initial estimate," Ayyaz told Geo.tv, adding, "To observe this asteroid one needs to have a telescope of more than one meter aperture with optical aid such as CCD (charged coupled device) - a special type of camera."
