Another visitor comes to our solar system
Another visitor comes to our solar system
Comet or Asteroid 2I/Borisov is the second interstellar object, that arrives at our solar system. The trajectory of that comet or particle has been calculated back to the red dwarf system, which is known as Krueger 60, and if the spectrum analysis of that particle matches with Oamuamua, that means that there was happened something in the Krueger 60 system, or somewhere else.
The thing is that we cannot possibly calculate the trajectory of that particle before it was left the Krueger 60 system. The reason for that is also the red dwarf star would act as the gravity sling and turn the route of the particle.
And the origin of that asteroid can be tracked by "simply" making the spectroscopic analysis of the dust, what orbits Krueger 60 star. If there are similarities with the spectrum of those particles of the dust and asteroids, what is orbiting the Krueger 60 and the incoming particle, the origin of those particles would be confirmed as Krueger 60. But if there are differences between the elements of Krueger 60, Oamuamua and the 2I/Borisov means that the objects are leaving from some other solar system, or they are from some different places.
And if two similar asteroids are coming to our solar system that would tell that there is some kind of eruption happened in some solar system. One of the most fascinating ideas would be that some nova or supernova eruption has broken some planet, and those two asteroids or comets would be from the same point in our galaxy. Or by the way, who told that those particles are coming from our galaxy?
One of the most fascinating theories is that those particles could come from another galaxy. In this case, the giant black hole would send those asteroids on the journey, and then after billions of years the particles would arrive at Krueger 60 system, and then the gravity sling would turn their road to our solar system. But the thing is that this kind of thing is full of theories, and we cannot even imagine, where the interstellar particles would come from.
Those particles can travel billions of years, and nobody knows, would some things like cosmic radiation and other energy eruptions affect the trajectory of what those particles have traveled in the space. Even if the movement of trajectory is about a millionth of degrees, that thing has to affect if the particle would travel billions of years. And that's why the calculation of the beginning of the journey is very difficult and confirming the results is even more difficult.
