<<<Which indicates that the close approach distance is 0.0000416667AU = 3904 miles at about 11pm on the 8th, which is quite about closer than 200,000 miles.

This might not make sense to some. All I am trying to say here is that it appears the JPL data is inconsistent.>>>



Isn't this close enough to be captured by the Earth's gravity?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1585083


Just following the trail of thought at the moment.

The moon at more than 200,000 miles away from earth is captured in earth's gravity, at just the right point to maintain its regular orbit.

So, what do you think?
