2022 NX1 (original) (raw)
2022 NX1 is a near-Earth object roughly 10 meters (33 ft) in diameter, that orbits the Sun but makes slow close approaches to the Earth–Moon system. Between 11 June 2022 and 3 July 2022 (a period of 22 days) it passed within Earth's Hill sphere (roughly 0.01 AU (1.5 million km; 0.93 million mi)) at a low relative velocity and became temporarily captured by Earth's gravity, with a geocentric orbital eccentricity of less than 1 and negative geocentric orbital energy. Due to its Earth-like orbit, the object could be of artificial origin or lunar ejecta. The closest approach to Earth in 2022 was 26 June 2022 at roughly 812,200 km (504,700 mi) when it had a relative velocity of 0.96 km/s (2,100 mph). It was last near Earth around 16 January 1981 when it passed about 600,000 km (370,000 mi) from

dbo:abstract | 2022 NX1 is a near-Earth object roughly 10 meters (33 ft) in diameter, that orbits the Sun but makes slow close approaches to the Earth–Moon system. Between 11 June 2022 and 3 July 2022 (a period of 22 days) it passed within Earth's Hill sphere (roughly 0.01 AU (1.5 million km; 0.93 million mi)) at a low relative velocity and became temporarily captured by Earth's gravity, with a geocentric orbital eccentricity of less than 1 and negative geocentric orbital energy. Due to its Earth-like orbit, the object could be of artificial origin or lunar ejecta. The closest approach to Earth in 2022 was 26 June 2022 at roughly 812,200 km (504,700 mi) when it had a relative velocity of 0.96 km/s (2,100 mph). It was last near Earth around 16 January 1981 when it passed about 600,000 km (370,000 mi) from Earth. It will return to be temporarily captured in December 2051. The object was discovered on 2 July 2022 by Moonbase South Observatory in Namibia when it had a deep Southern Hemisphere declination of –59° in the constellation of Pavo. With a 56-day observation arc the object shows a 1.2% chance of impacting Earth between the years of 2075–2122. This asteroid experienced a temporarily-captured flyby in 1981, had another one in 2022, and the 31-day observation arc predicts it may become a temporarily-captured orbiter in 2051. (en) |
