“…Following the discovery and characterisation of Earth's temporary-captured satellite 2006 RH 120 (Kwiatkowski et al, 2009), Granvik et al (2012) were the first to propose that there is a population of small asteroids in orbit around the Earth at any given time. Further evidence of temporarily-captured satellites come from, e.g., backwards orbit integration of the asteroid 1991 VG (de la Fuente Marcos & de la Fuente Marcos, 2018), the discovery of the meteor EN130114 originating from a geocentric orbit (Clark et al, 2016), and a candidate temporarily-captured satellite detected by the Space Surveillance Telescope (Lue et al, 2019). Natural temporarily-captured satellites include both temporarily-captured orbiters (TCOs), that make at least one equivalent of a revolution around the Earth while being captured, and temporarily-captured flybys (TCFs), that make less than one equivalent of a revolution while being captured.…”
