- Confirmation that 2020 XL5 is the second known Earth Trojan asteroid, a ~1 km C-type (carbonaceous chondrite) body located at the Sun–Earth L4 Lagrange point.  
- Discussion notes that, despite its “XL5” designation, the asteroid is actually at L4, not L5, highlighting the sometimes non-intuitive naming conventions in astronomy.  
- The discovery was made by the Pan-STARRS 1 survey at Haleakala Observatory, Hawaii, on 12 December 2020.  
- Participants express interest in the resource potential of such carbon-rich near-Earth objects, with a tongue-in-cheek comment calling the asteroid “tasty,” implying future mining or material-extraction prospects.
