Beginning Sunday, Earth's skies will soon have a temporary visitor.
On September 29, an asteroid dubbed 2024 PT5 will become a "mini-moon" of sorts, temporarily entering Earth's orbit for almost two months before the forces of gravity return it to a vast field of space rocks known as the Arjuna asteroid belt that follows a similar orbital path around the sun as our own home planet.
