Was ‘Oumuamua an Alien Ship? Everything We Know So Far

In 2017, astronomers spotted something that shook the scientific world: an object from deep space, moving too fast to be bound by our Sun. It didn’t behave like a comet or asteroid. No tail, strange shape, sudden acceleration — and then it vanished into the dark.

They called it ‘Oumuamua — “the scout.” But what was it really?

Some believe it was a natural anomaly. Others think it could be a spacecraft from another civilization. Now, a daring mission — Project Lyra — is being planned to chase it down and uncover the truth.

This is the story of the strangest visitor our Solar System has ever seen.
