8:23Now PlayingNo really - there's an artificial probe detected by astronomers to be moving at speed through the Solar System this week! It's Cherry Red, looks like a car, and used to belong to Elon Musk. Ok sorry for the bait! These observations actually give us a sense as to what an artificial interstellar interloper might look like. But this week hasn't been all cherries as the President takes aim at WFIRST, a next-gen space telescope which was the top recommendation of the US astronomy community in the last decadal survey.
