In 2017, astronomer Robert Weryk, working in Hawaii, detected a strange object travelling through our Solar
System. It was given the name ‘Oumuamua, from the Hawaiian for ‘scout’, after observations confirmed that it was
of extrasolar origin. This bizarre, cigar-shaped object was unlike anything that had been seen before and its temporary
visit to the Solar System sparked a fierce debate about its origins that continues to this day.

Since ‘Oumuamua was only passing through our Solar System briefly, scientists had to act quickly to gather
as much data as possible. They employed a variety of telescopes and other instruments to study the object’s size,
shape, composition and trajectory, but only limited information could be gathered before ‘Oumuamua reached an
unfavourable distance for observation. In 2019, 2I/Borisov – the second known interstellar object – was discovered.
It is a rogue comet initially spotted by an amateur astronomer. Astronomers now think such interstellar objects pass
through our Solar System on a regular basis.
