nice animation but is this real? I noticed that the object (named Joo23) in the animation did not come from Earth but from outer space. Now, I won't claim that this is an UFO, but it be interesting to learn why the object zig-zagged around whereas moon remained on its way.
By the way, I like your signature.

I may have missed something here, but you seemed to be asking why the moon affected the path of the object but not vice versa.

The answer is that the mass of the moon is so huge that the tiny tug the object gives it is completely unnoticeable, just as all the satellites going round the earth don't affect its path in any detectable way.
