A hypothetical planet-sized Earth trojan the size of Mars, given the name Theia, is thought by proponents of the giant-impact hypothesis to be the origin of the Moon.The hypothesis states that the Moon formed after Earth and Theia collided, [10] showering material from the two planets into space.
Position of 2010 TK 7 relative to Earth in 2011 Effective potential plot showing Earth's Lagrangian points (not to scale); contours around L 4 and L 5 represent tadpole loop paths. Because Earth trojans share Earth's orbit and have little gravity of their own, less energy might be needed to reach them than the Moon, even though they are much ...
More than a million Jupiter trojans larger than one kilometer are thought to exist, [2] of which more than 7,000 are currently catalogued. In other planetary orbits only nine Mars trojans, 31 Neptune trojans, two Uranus trojans, and two Earth trojans, have been found to date. A temporary Venus trojan is also known. Numerical orbital dynamics ...
(614689) 2020 XL 5 (provisional designation 2020 XL 5) is a near-Earth asteroid and Earth trojan discovered by the Pan-STARRS 1 survey at Haleakala Observatory, Hawaii on 12 December 2020. It oscillates around the Sun – Earth L 4 Lagrangian point (leading 60°), one of the dynamically stable locations where the combined gravitational force ...
Ragdoll cats fittingly epitomize the rags-to-riches theme, with their development from street cat origins to become arguably the most popular and glamorous feline breed in the world.

Minor planets include asteroids (near-Earth objects, Earth trojans, Mars trojans, Mars-crossers, main-belt asteroids and Jupiter trojans), as well as distant minor planets (Uranus trojans, Neptune trojans, centaurs and trans-Neptunian objects), most of which reside in the Kuiper belt and the scattered disc.
The cats featured in this video are one small part of a larger act of clicker-trained rescue cats called The Amazing Acro-Cats, part of a larger charity organization to support rescue animals ...
