Abstract:Asteroid 2020 CD3 was one of the most recently captured natural objects that became Earth’s transient satellite or minimoon. The asteroid is very likely residing in an Earth-like orbit (ELO) with 1:1 mean-motion resonance and occasionally captured by the Earth. In this study, the dynamical evolution of this object is conducted in a framework of Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CR3BP). Five thousand test objects are generated by distributing the orbital space with a random uniform scheme around the objec… Show more
