Near-Earth Trajectory
![Near-Earth trajectory of 2024 LH1](/close-approaches/2024-LH1_geometry/2024-LH1_orbit_plot_lunar.png)
Path of 2024 LH1 in the Near-Earth region, shown from above and within the ecliptic plane. The large dot denotes the point of closest approach to the Earth, with tick marks every 2 hours. The lunar orbit is also shown, with the position of the Moon at the time of closest approach.
Orbit of 2024 LH1
![oblique view of orbit](/close-approaches/2024-LH1_geometry/2024-LH1_orbit_plot.png)
Oblique view showing the positions of the asteroid and Earth (coinciding) on the date of closest approach. The thin lines show the projection of the asteroid's orbit projected onto the ecliptic plane, with tic marks denoting 15-day intervals.
![co-rotating orbit plot](/close-approaches/2024-LH1_geometry/2024-LH1_orbit_plot_corot.png)
View of the orbit in a reference frame co-rotating with the Earth. Circles denote positions of the asteroid at intervals of 30 days relative to perihelion (filled circle). The upper plot shows the view from above the ecliptic plane and the low plot is the view along the ecliptic plane.
