And now it has an invisible propulsion system. Too bad Art Bell isn’t around.

as of June 1, it is traveling about 114,000 kilometers [70,000 miles] per hour.

Relative to what? The earth? The sun? Interstellar space?

Measured against interstellar space, each of us are moving at least 1,300,000 mph, just sitting at our desktops.

It’s parent star system...

So it somehow left it’s parent system and now is
flung out to space aimlessly?

Is it now captured by our sun?

Ain’t got a Home...

venting material from its surface due to solar heating – a behavior known as outgassing

Gassing? Did you say GASSING??

Well there's here's only one solution of that. Too much freedom for people to screw up the universe with too much gassing. WE NEED MORE GOVERNMENT TO STOP PEOPLE FROM GASSING THE UNIVSERSE! OUR PRIORITY #1 THREATENING PROBLEM!!!

Even more curious is that it has a twin in a different orbit, but little has been reported about it other than it exists.

Interstellar robotic survey craft like those postulated in Gregory Benford’s “In The Ocean of Night”, sent by the machine civilization at the galaxy’s core.

Look! Up in the sky, it’s an asteroid. . . No, it’s a comet! Astronomers are still befuddled when charged objects refuse to act according to their gravitas expectations. It’s becoming clearer that mass is a characteristic of charge and changes with the amount of charge a body has accumulated which naturally would likely affect how it’s newtonian motion in respect to gravity reacts.—Electric Universe PING!

Oumuamua hurtling out of the solar system faster than expected – as of June 1, it is traveling about 114,000 kilometers [70,000 miles] per hour.

Relative to what? It would be just as accurate to say that it is standing still and the solar system is moving (which it is).
