Have you ever had a stranger knock on your door? Well, our Solar System just had three strange visitors knock on ours!

In this episode, we take a journey to meet the Interstellar Objects—space rocks that came from way outside our neighborhood, zoomed past the Sun, and are heading back out into the deep dark.

Here’s what we’ll explore:

• The Weird One ('Oumuamua): Meet the first visitor, a long, skinny rock that looks like a space cigar. It didn't act like a normal comet and sped up all on its own! Was it a rock... or maybe an alien spaceship? 👽

• The Normal Cousins (Borisov & ATLAS): We look at the other two visitors, who acted much more like the icy comets we know, spitting out water and gas like a leaky hose.

• The Great Space Chase: These visitors move fast. We talk about "Project Lyra," a wild plan where scientists want to build a super-fast rocket to chase 'Oumuamua down before it disappears forever.

Grab your space helmet and join us as we try to solve the mystery of these galactic wanderers!
