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
That puts it at least one step ahead of your post.

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?
It got turned into space confetti by impact or some other event we probably can’t know — *orrrrr* this particular bit (and probably many others) got blown away into new orbits by a large impact, and the rest of the planet is still out there, undiscovered. I’d guess the second one.
Thanks, that was good and nuts.
BTW, NWA 12264 was not discovered in Compton CA.
Maybe even impure guesswork.
Long long ago in a distant galaxy.
It could have come from another solar system, like ATLAS.
