It may have come from a planet not of our solar system that was obliterated by their sun’s super nova.....................
Interesting but ultimately this is all pure guesswork
Only 5.8 years left. Says occasion cortex
How did this planet get smashed to small pieces?
It seems to me we’re fed regular updates from our Cargo Cult betters every 50 years or so, with each iteration spewing authoritatively from our sheepskinned academic betters as if the Cult’s lore just was but due for a slight tweaking.
In actuality, they’re the blind leading the blinded in the dark, and from what they do know, they try to squirrel away the shiniest marbles to maintain and/or increase their own advantage.
I don’t know how they are sure it came from a proto-planet beyond Jupiter. What happened to that body—did it become one of the moons of one of the outer planets?
BTW, NWA 12264 was not discovered in Compton CA.
Adds some data to Tom Van Flandren’s exploded planted theory.
Scientists are never wrong. Until they say they are wrong. Then it’s OK because they then become right and all their theories should be honored again.
