Scientists have discovered an asteroid that will accompany Earth for the next 60 years, creating an effect of a 'second moon.' This object, known as 2025 PN7, has a diameter of about 19 meters and is classified as a quasi-satellite. Unlike a real satellite, it orbits the Sun, not the Earth, but it does so in sync with our planet. Its orbit is stable, and it poses no threat. However, due to its small size and extremely low brightness, it cannot be seen with the naked eye or even with amateur telescopes. This phenomenon is of great scientific interest, allowing specialists to study the dynamics of near-Earth orbits and improve the understanding of asteroids passing through our cosmic environment. Earth will remain with its one natural satellite, the Moon, but for the next few decades, it will have a 'neighbor'.
