The Earth has got itself a new moon.The new satellite is temporary: it will leave again at the end of November. And it is very small, at just 10 metres across.But it is one of a very few times that we have seen the Earth acquire a new temporary satellite of this kind.

Here’s the deal: On Sept. 29 Earth’s gravity snagged a “mini moon” and pulled it into our orbit. This second moon is technically an asteroid called 2024 PT5. According to astronomers, the moon is way too small and far away to be seen by the naked eye, but astrologers think it could impact the astrological landscape.
