[TEXT] Very nearly the speed of light


In 1991 scientists detected an object traveling through our solar system at 99.99% the speed of light. It was determined to be a computer glitch caused by a calibration inaccuracy, most likely due to human error.


This same object has been detected at least 15 times since.


Today it was observed again. This time it's heading directly for Earth, slowing its velocity as it approaches our world.


What's the story?
