It does not necessarily pass through GEO. GEO is also defined as over the equator specifically, and it is rather unlikely that the asteroid will happen to be above that point when it crosses the proper altitude.

I just find it especially ironic that I was modded up more than the post I recommended be modded up. This is one of the very few cases where "-1 Overrated" is actually justified.
