.....but if it was a " probe " would it not have been sending transmissions back to it's home planet ?
I would imagine that if it indeed " accelerated " then it still must be " powered up " in some way ?
Could it be that it didn't see anything worthy of writing home about?
Or maybe it waited until it was out of our hearing distance before delivering its report?

I am not that clued up on these things, but if it was a " probe " would it not have been sending transmissions back to it's home planet ?
Would those transmissions not have been detected on Earth ?

Free advertisement for his upcoming book.
That is all to see here.
No doubt but it would be nice to know what it was made of if the said properties are true.
Just like any other object in space.
An amalgamation of "stuff".
True.
Did you get my PM?
Just did , and answered.

I think he's likely on the correct track of thought as that was a weird object.
However, the person using 'Harvard Professor' as an appeal to authority might want to reconsider as one Harvard Prof urged everyone to take acid and drop out and another thought little unknown beings were abducting and buggering folks in their sleep.
I happen to think both of those Profs were ahead of their time and somewhat right thinking ... but I'm a textbook kook.

The part about the object pushing away from the sun with MORE force than just the sun's gravity is quite interesting..
Wouldn't NASA already have known that as well? NASA isn't known for sharing everything they know about "things", so now hearing about this from a college professor. It's a start I suppose.

Doesn't have to do with "speed" nearly as much as object density . The less denser the object , the more gravity can accelerate.
I would hope an astronomer would know this .

I would have to assume that its end over end rotation characteristics caused its weird trajectory rather than assume it was an extraterrestrial space craft. Its shininess probably caused by a layer of ice or shiny natural elements.
