An Alien Asteroid? A Migrant Asteroid? Go back to your Solar System! Well, actually, it is interesting, and provides much hope to get some news on what is out of the Solar System. It is like the Stranger and the Unknown: opportunities to learn. Bruno -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.

Re: An interstellar asteroid has been found
"The most unusual feature of the asteroid, was noted by astronomers, observing the asteroid's copious production of helium and lithium, passing outwards, from one side of the asteroid, and the non-typical heat signature from the asteroidal crater, leaving the asteroid at high speed. More non-typical, was the observation of pulsed radio signals from the object, and the metallic structures seen on the asteroid;s surface. Astronomers suggest that backyard, astronomers, enjoy the object while they can, as it passes out of the solar system. A glorious, phenomena of nature!" ~Dr. Hugo Braunschwigger At the European Astrophysical Institute University of Schmeckelsdorf am Rhein -Original Message- From: John Clark <johnkcl...@gmail.com> To: everything-list <everything-list@googlegroups.com> Sent: Sun, Oct 29, 2017 12:29 pm Subject: An interstellar asteroid has been found For the first time an asteroid has been found that follows a hyperbolic path not a elliptical one, that means it is not in orbit around the sun but is freely traveling between the stars.

An interstellar asteroid has been found
For the first time an asteroid has been found that follows a hyperbolic path not a elliptical one, that means it is not in orbit around the sun but is freely traveling between the stars. It's about 1300 feet across and was discovered on Oct 19 after it had already made its closest approach to Earth (15 million miles) which must have been on Oct 14. It will never come this way again. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2017/10/27/a-space-rock-from-another-star-is-spotted-in-our-solar-system-a-cosmic-first/?utm_term=.2f342bf9bebc John K Clark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
