After becoming gravitationally-trapped, the four potentially interstellar objects \\u2014 2011 SP25, 2017 RR2, 2017 SV13, and 2018 TL6 \\u2014 are thought to spend most of their time between the orbits of Jupiter and Neptune.\\xa0\\xa0 In a paper submitted to the\\xa0Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Harvard co-authors Amir Siraj and Abraham Loeb, compare the orbital characteristics of theoretical high-inclination objects to those of the centaurs, the most similar population of known asteroids. \\u201cWe find that there should be hundreds of Oumuamua-size interstellar objects identifiable by Centaur-like orbits,\\u201d write the authors.\\xa0 1I/2017 U1 Oumuamua, the first bona fide interstellar object, was discovered Oct. 19, 2017 by the University of Hawaii\\u2019s Pan-Starrs telescope.\\xa0 But the authors note that there should be at least 66 possible other interstellar objects in their calculations, ranging in diameter from roughly 100 meters to 10 kilometers in size. And all of these potential interstellar interlopers should be detectable by the LSST (Large Synoptic Survey Telescope), currently under construction in Chile. \\u201c\\xa0We do not know if they are comets, asteroids, or artifacts\\xa0,\\u201d Amir Siraj, a Harvard University undergraduate in astrophysics, told me They pass near Earth on timescales of some 20 to 120 years so it will be another 20 years until we can photograph one of them, he says.
