Some News...

Hey guys I'm back and today I'll be talking about some current news. But first the answer to my riddle. It's a . . .

Anyway... that piece of news is about a second 'mini' moon. This 'second moon' has been looping earth for at least a century. But researchers aren't calling this a moon. Instead they call it an asteroid which has been called 2016 H03. The 2016 H03 doesn't actually loop around earth, it actually orbits the sun. Scientists say that 2016 H03 spends half its orbit closer to the sun than earth. Also because of Earth's gravitational pull, 2016 H03 never wanders more than 40,000,000km from our planet. But this is not the first time Earth's gravitational pull has dragged in a companion. In 2003 an asteroid named 2003 YN107 displayed a similar orbital pattern. However it has disappeared or at least from what we can see. But NASA researchers say that this will not happen with 2016 H03 because they believe it is 'Locked on to' Earth.

So that was he post for this week and I'l see you guys next time.
