the object needs a new designation as it does not orbit the Sun,  
just passing through.


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.

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!"

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.
