...Oumuamua took the world by storm in October 2017 when it was identified as the first known visitor from another star system.
A pair of Harvard scientists suggested the long and thin object was a spacecraft, sparking a frantic flurry of scans by astronomers as it flew by....
...Perhaps strangest of all was that the object appeared to accelerate on its journey, suggesting it was powered by something....
The new study lines up with research published last year....

I bet when the aliens fly by Earth, they lock the doors.
That's because they're racists.
Or earthist?
Speciests
Or smart
So we figured out what was the progenitor was...the “papa oumuamua” so to speak....
Now if we could only figure out “Shamalama-ding-dong.”
Alien theories, space, weirdness, now this is Undead Thread territory.
If that would be okay?
What is that? A phony chocolate covered south american camel like animal?
Otis! My man!!
Can’t these "scientists" do basic math? If Oumuamua were traveling at the speed of light and originated in the closest of these potential birth places, it would have only traveled about one-third of the distance to our solar system by now!
Yet, they measured Oumuamua’s velocity at only 200,000 MPH, not the 186,282.25 miles per second velocity of light in a vacuum… about 3,300 times slower than light speed.
The real fact are that the Carina-Near-Moving-Group of stars is NOT that far away as the bozos writing this article claim, but more like 8,000 to 10,000 light years (not an absurd 100 to 160 million Light Years as stated in the article!). The diameter of our entire Milky Way Galaxy is only about 100,000 light years… and the obscuring debris clouds are between us and the Moving-Group of twenty supposedly connected Carina Stars… where Oumuamua is postulated to have been born in a cloud of postulated magical "molecular matter" that just wants to form an elongated object for an unknown reason.
But they are pulling navel lint from their belly buttons with these claims. They literally have ZERO facts aside from a vague notion of the incoming orbital mechanics before it entered our star’s gravitational influence and after our system had already gravitationally affected that orbit BEFORE we noticed Oumuamua at all and finally measured anything at all about it. They’re admiring their lint, and making conclusions on data that may be wildly inaccurate.
Shoot! There goes my theory it was a weather balloon.
"The new study lines up with research published last year that suggested Oumuamua was a hydrogen iceberg ejected by a molecular cloud."
That "published" article was not "research" but a non-scientific journalist’s speculation in commentary which was also published in the Sun… no one has EVER seen ”solid hydrogen" much less a "hydrogen iceberg," especially one which evinces zero surface sublimation to gaseous hydrogen … nor has anyone postulated how a "molecular cloud" could form or eject such an iceberg! The Sun is notorious for making such unattributed claims as this about its own previous assertions.
What point was served in this article about seeking names of random nobodies to send those names, not the nobodies, to Mars?
These "researchers" seem ignorant of Boyle’s Laws and the actions of gasses.
If it did indeed come from a cold, dark clump of dust and gas, these "scientists" better ask themselves "What possible force could have been applied to Oumuamua to accelerate it away from the cold, dusty, gassy, clumpy area to ~200,000 MPH and into an interstellar orbit to intersect our Solar System?”
I think your interstellar weather balloon theory is a far more viable theory than this "born in a molecular cloud" crap….
Yours has intentionality, while theirs claims it’s all just coincidence… I don’t like coincidence.
not sure what I believe, hydrogen spaceberg seems a bit more glamorous and 'safer' than the ego-killer of being passed over and rejected as insignificant by aliens cruising by, with not so much as an Engish countryside crop circle to commemorate the event. ;)
They don’t even know what it was. Building mighty castles on nothing.
****Now if we could only figure out “Shamalama-ding-dong.”****
I think its about a molecule in a thumbnail being an entire universe.
