A fireball that was recently seen over Brazil may have been an interstellar object. This is incredibly significant as only two other objects traveling through our Solar System have been identified as being interstellar – ‘Oumuamua and Comet 2I/Borisov. ‘Oumuamua was discovered in October of 2017 traveling at a whopping speed of 196,000 miles per.

Ever since 2I/Borisov was first discovered, astronomers have been fascinated with this interstellar comet. With new information being discovered about the comet, experts have confidentially called it the most “pristine” space object that’s ever been studied. Astronomers don’t think that 2I/Borisov ever traveled close to any star (other than our sun) which means that its composition of gas and dust was completely pure and original. When comets travel close to stars, they can become altered or degraded by the sun’s radiation and heat.

The aim of the study was to find additional ISOs and planning missions to intercept or rendezvous with these bodies will greatly benefit from the knowledge of their likely orbits and arrival rates. ....
