Earth Acquires a Quasi-Moon
richard_za writes "Earth has acquired a so called quasi-moon, an asteroid: 2003 YN1, which will encircle us for the next couple of years while it orbits the sun on a horse-shoe shaped path.

"How much delta-v would it take to push it into a stable orbit."
Probably just enough to trigger the "No nukes in space!" protesters.
