Yeah, hugely quick through the solar system.

I think that just means it's old.

So generally what happens is as rocks hang out in deep space, they encounter other stars.

And every time they encounter a star, they get slingshotted basically.

So they kind of speed up a little bit every time they encounter something.

So generally you expect that the older something is, the more it's been pumped up in terms of its speed.

So Oumuamua was moving really slowly.

And Ivy said it's moving suspiciously slowly, therefore it's aliens.

And then for this one, it's moving really fast.

And I'd be saying it's moving so fast, it's suspicious, therefore it's aliens.

So I think that doesn't really jive.

I think that doesn't make any sense.

It's probably just an old rock that's about 7 billion years old.

And that's cool because it's older than the solar system, right?

So if we intercept that thing, we could sample material from not only another star system, but before even a whole solar system existed.

Well, it's going to be here in October, right?

It's already about maybe two and a half AU from the sun.

It's coming in.

It will pass behind the sun in October and then come on its way back out.

So James Webb is observing it right now or just a couple of days ago was observing it.
