Do we have any info on how the orbit changed? edit
Do we have enough observational data to know how the orbit of 2020 QG changed from it's close encounter with Earth?
The article just shows standard orbital ephemeris for a single Apollo asteroid orbit. But it would seem that, at 2900 km, the asteroid may have gotten a gravity assist / perturbation in the close encounter, and the new orbital parameters would have changed, perhaps markedly.
Would improve the article to reflect on this, if we have verifiable information. N2e (talk) 21:55, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
