This article details a new finding of an object just outside the solar system. It has a very odd orbit. Read the article for details.

Also, the object is named Buffy, after the vampire slayer of the same name. Yeah, I know.

Personally, I think it’s the Alien Observation Craft, sent by a sentient race to keep an eye on us and make sure we don’t leave the solar system. Kind of a cosmic trip wire. Or maybe it’s just a chunk of rock that got lost. It remains to be seen.
