"Discovery of New Moon Orbiting Mars"

Astronomers have confirmed the existence of a new trojan asteroid, 2023 FW14, in the orbit of Mars, making it the 17th trojan asteroid discovered around the Red Planet. Unlike other trojans, this new companion might be in an unstable orbit, leading to intriguing possibilities about its past. The confirmation of the asteroid as belonging to the Martian trojan comes from the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), and its spectrum provides important insights into its origin. This discovery provides valuable information about our understanding of celestial mechanics and the reliability of theoretical models.
