>>11197162it was a rock they had shitty measurements on and Avi Loeb decided to turn it into a meme because that's what Harvard "geniuses" do. like Lisa Randall -- "hurr durr dark matter self interacts, ergo i explain dinos going extinct". then all the other harvard profs shill it at their colloquia. "Just read Lisa's book! I know we are all scientists here, and it is completely speculative and outlandish, but just buy it! Harvard prof books are so good!"
i bet you 100 bucks there will be a meme book by Avi or one of the other Harvard faculty about Oumuamua coming out soon.
