{{mp|(311999) 2007 NS|2}} is an asteroid and Mars trojan orbiting near the {{L5|pt=yes}} of Mars.

Discovery, orbit and physical properties

{{mp|(311999) 2007 NS|2}} was discovered on July 14, 2007, by the Observatorio Astronómico de La Sagra.[4][5][6][7][8]

Its orbit is characterized by low eccentricity (0.054), moderate inclination (18.6°) and a semi-major axis of 1.52 AU.[8] Upon discovery, it was classified as Mars-crosser by the Minor Planet Center. Its orbit is well determined as it is currently (March 2013) based on 87 observations with a data-arc span of 4,800 days.[2] {{mp|2007 NS|2}} has an absolute magnitude of 17.8, which gives a characteristic diameter of 870 m.[2]

Mars trojan and orbital evolution

Jean Meeus suspected that {{mp|(311999) 2007 NS|2}} was a Mars Trojan, and this was confirmed by Reiner Stoss’s analysis of two sets of observations dating from 1998 on the MPC database.[9] It was confirmed to be a Mars Trojan numerically in 2012.[10] Recent calculations confirm that it is a stable {{L5}} Mars Trojan asteroid with a libration period of 1310 years and an amplitude of 14°.[11][12] These values as well as its short-term orbital evolution are similar to those of 5261 Eureka. Out of all known Mars Trojans, it currently has the smallest relative (to Mars) semimajor axis, 0.000059 AU.[11]

Origin

Long-term numerical integrations show that its orbit is very stable on Gyr time-scales (1 Gyr = 1 billion years). As in the case of Eureka, calculations in both directions of time (4.5 Gyr into the past and 4.5 Gyr into the future) indicate that {{mp|(311999) 2007 NS|2}} may be a primordial object, perhaps a survivor of the planetesimal population that formed in the terrestrial planets region early in the history of the Solar System.[11]
