Establishing Earth's Minimoon Population through Characterization of Asteroid 2020 CD

Grigori Fedorets, Marco Micheli, Robert Jedicke +20

We report on our detailed characterization of Earth's second known temporary natural satellite, or minimoon, asteroid 2020 CD3. An artificial origin can be ruled out based on its a…

Possible Interstellar meteoroids detected by the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar

Mark Froncisz, Peter Brown, Robert J. Weryk

We examine meteoroid orbits recorded by the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar (CMOR) from 2012-2019, consisting of just over 11 million orbits in a search for potential interstellar mete…
