Maybe. I think it's more likely that an alien probe - assuming there are aliens and they fly probes - would be the size of a cubesat, and we wouldn't even notice it.

Perhaps Oumuamua was the mothership and the solar system is now swarming with cubesats we're not noticing.

Or maybe the size of a sub-atomic particle, as in the sci-fi Novel 'The 3 body problem'.

Does anyone else see a timer ticking down in their vision or is it just me?

Time to quit my job at the LHC and be a baker.

The Ramans do everything in threes.

Thank you! Finally a good Rama reference in the wild.

I really hope someone sends a probe to catch Omaumau. When Starship is flying regularly it should be doable, just barely.

It’s news to me that Starship flying is doable.

The chances that it's a rare type of interstellar object are incredibly small.

Can we get Musk to pilot it?
