   How many near-Earth asteroids have a co-orbital axis 1 AU?

   • Among the nearly 30,000 known near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), only tens possess Earth co-orbital characteristics with semi-major axes ~1 au. In particular, 469219 Kamo‘oalewa (2016 HO3), an upcoming target of China’s Tianwen-2 asteroid sampling mission, exhibits a meta-stable 1:1 mean-motion resonance with Earth.

   How do asteroids get their names?

   • Asteroids are given a unique sequential identifying number once their orbit is precisely determined. Prior to this, they are known only by their systematic name or provisional designation, such as 1950 DA . Estimating the sizes of asteroids from observations is difficult due to their irregular shapes, varying albedo, and small angular diameter.
