In a study published in the journal Nature Communications Earth & Environment introduces Kamooalewa, an asteroid discovered in 2016 near Earth with a lunar origin, marking the Moon’s mysterious miniature companion. Named “the oscillating celestial fragment,” Kamooalewa has dimensions of 40 to 60 meters and orbits Earth at approximately 14.5 million kilometers, becoming visible with powerful telescopes during April. Classified as a “quasi-satellite,” it challenges researchers to unveil its secrets due to its faint brightness. Scientists have used the Gran Telescopio Binocular to analyze its light spectrum, revealing lunar characteristics. As Kamo`oalewa remains in orbit for another 300 years, its discovery paves the way for deeper exploration into lunar mysteries and potential companionship with Earth.
