In approx 1986 astronomers discovered another "natural" satellite but that turned out to be a wandering asteroid that got picked up by the Earths gravitational field, and the one they found a few months ago is likely to be an old rocket booster
Dude, dont give away all the info, yet.

oh, and if you dont consider the Moon a permanent moon, then you would have to consider that no moons in the solar system are permanent. In fact, the planets aren't permanent, either, so they aren't planets. And the sun won't be around in 10 billion years, so it's not a star, etc. Am I right?
