In 2017, the Panstellar Survey Telescope in Hawaii discovered Omomo. It is shaped like a cigar, has a reddish color, is about 100 meters long, and is relatively slender overall. If you put it on Earth, it's about the length of three or four football fields. The speed of the "Omomo" is very high, reaching 25.5 kilometers per second, which is equivalent to 91,800 kilometers per hour. That's a lot faster than Earth's fastest flying machine.
This means that instead of orbiting the sun, it passes directly through the solar system and then flies out again. Such an orbit is very rare in the solar system, which has also led scientists to doubt its identity.
They found that Omomo's speed and orbit were very stable, indicating that it was not an asteroid or a comet. Moreover, the shape of "Omomo" is also very peculiar, and its long and short axes are very large, which indicates that it may be a very slender object.
This conclusion is very exciting, because this is the first time that an exocelestial object has been discovered within the solar system. This also means that "Omomo" may be a very ancient celestial body, and it may have come from the depths of the universe.
Some scientists believe that Omomo may be an asteroid or comet that was captured by the sun's gravitational pull as it passed near the solar system and then entered the solar system. However, this explanation does not fully explain the peculiar orbit and shape of "Omomo".
This idea is very bold, but there is some evidence to support it. First of all, the shape of "Omomo" is very peculiar, and its long and short axes are very large, which indicates that it may be a very complex structure. Secondly, the speed of the "Omomo" is very fast, which suggests that it may be driven by some kind of advanced propulsion system. Finally, the behavior of "Omomo" is also very strange, after entering the solar system, it does not gradually slow down under the gravitational pull of the sun like other asteroids or comets, but directly passes through the solar system, and then flies out again.
Although this idea is very bold, there is no conclusive evidence to support it. The origin of "Omomo" is still a mystery, and more observations and research are needed to unravel it.
