A mysterious cosmic discovery has stunned astronomers, revealing that Earth has been trailed by a strange “quasi-moon” since as early as 100 BC. Known as 2023 FW13, this ancient asteroid mimics the Moon’s orbit while remaining gravitationally bound to the Sun, creating a celestial dance unlike anything seen before. Detected through powerful telescopes in Hawaii and confirmed by observatories worldwide, it is now considered the most stable Earth-like quasi-satellite ever found. Scientists say it will continue shadowing our planet for at least another 1,500 years, deepening curiosity about how small bodies interact with Earth’s gravity. Its enormous orbital loop and unusual stability have sparked major scientific debate, offering a rare glimpse into the mechanics of near-Earth objects. Join us as we decode how this cosmic companion has quietly followed our world for more than two millennia.
