Dastronomers have discovered an asteroid that orbits the Sun with the Earth, a “quasi-moon”.
Asteroid 2023 FW13,regarding 15 to 20 meters in diameter, moves in an orbit around the Sun at the same rate as the Earth while rotating around the Earth at regular intervals, which has earned it the nickname of quasi-moon or quasi-satellite. This asteroid is however not new in space since it has already been with us for 2100 years and according to the scientists who have studied it, it should remain around us for another 1700 years.
