evolution of the orbit of the Venus quasi-satellite

The video clearly shows how Zoozwe's trajectory in a geocentric coordinate system slowly rotates in space around the Earth. A similar trajectory of Venus slowly rotates and makes a complete revolution around the Earth in 1215 years. Zoozwe's trajectory first makes an incomplete rotation in one direction, then begins to rotate in the other direction.

Modeling and visualization were performed by the author of this publication using proprietary software. The calculations took into account the mutual influence of the Sun, all the planets of the Solar System, the Moon and the asteroid on each other. Relativistic effects were also taken into account in the calculations.
