The thread is about an object in our solar system, called 2002 VE. Its motion under the influence of gravity isn't clearly "an orbit", but (for now) it sort of follows closed loops when viewed from the moving frame of Venus, so people call it a quasi-moon of Venus. Figure 4 in this paper shows the object's trajectory in the frame of Venus: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1208.4444.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/1208.4444.pdf
