Arab Weather - The US space agency "NASA" has spotted a giant and unusual space object in outer space, characterized by its tremendous speed and size that exceeds the size of planet Earth by thousands of times, which aroused the curiosity and speculations of astronomy researchers.

According to NASA, this giant object is 27,306 times the size of Earth and is moving at a speed of up to 1 million miles per hour. This speed could allow it to break away from the Milky Way galaxy in the future.

According to the British newspaper, the Daily Mail, the mysterious space object was spotted more than 400 light years from Earth. To clarify, a light year is equal to a distance of six trillion miles.

NASA hasn't determined exactly what the object is, but scientists believe it could be a "brown dwarf," a star that's larger than planets but lacks the mass to support long-term nuclear fusion like the sun. If confirmed as a brown dwarf, it would be the first brown dwarf ever observed in a chaotic orbit so fast it could break away from our galaxy.

Search teams and discovery officials

NASA has confirmed that a team of scientists working on the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project discovered the celestial body. “I can’t describe the level of excitement,” said German scientist Martin Kabatnik, a longtime member of the team. “When I first saw how fast it was, I was convinced it must have been reported already,” added Kabatnik, who is based in Nuremberg.

Scientists, including Dr. Kyle Creamer, are working to better understand the mysterious object, and believe there are several theories in astrophysics that could explain the incredible speed. NASA aims to direct more equipment to observe the space object, codenamed CWISE J1249, to better understand its chemical composition, or “elemental composition.”
