Summary

Description
English: This diagram shows one complete orbit of asteroid 2015 BZ509. The view is from side looking into the Solar System. The Sun is the yellow disk in the middle. The orbit of Jupiter is shown in black, and to scale. Jupiter is stationary in this rotating frame, and its position is shown with the small red circle (not to scale). The orbit of 2015 BZ509 is shown in blue when it is above (north of) the plane of the orbit of Jupiter, and it is shown in magenta when it is below (south of) the plane of the orbit of Jupiter.[1]
Italiano: Il diagramma mostra un'orbita completa dell'asteroide (514107) 2015 BZ509 in un sistema di riferimento eliocentrico, solidale con Giove (nel quale cioè Giove appare fisso nello spazio). L'osservatore appartiene al piano orbitale di Giove ed osserva la scena di lato. In nero è mostrata l'orbita di Giove, la cui posizione è indicata col pallino rosso. Il pallino giallo identifica invece la posizione del Sole. L'orbita dell'asteroide è mostrata in blu quando è al di sopra del piano orbitale di Giove e in magenta quando è al di sotto.[1]
