‘Since 60 years’: What is Quasi-Moon and why is it silently orbiting Earth?

A quasi-moon is an astronomical object that follows a similar path around the Sun as Earth, but it does not orbit Earth in the same way our Moon does. This intriguing quasi-moon, known as 2023 FW13, has been silently keeping pace with our planet for over 60 years, virtually undetected by the vast majority of people. Instead of encircling Earth directly, this enigmatic object appears to accompany us on our celestial journey, creating a fascinating and little-known phenomenon in the realm of space exploration. While not a traditional satellite of Earth, 2023 FW13 has been a discrete observer of our planet’s orbit, adding a mysterious touch to the cosmic dance in our solar system.
