Studies confirmed a second observed interstellar streaking across the sky last month. The interstellar object has been named as 2I/Borisov by the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet centre. The comet's current velocity is high, about 93,000 mph and the high velocity indicates that it will leave the solar system and head back to the interstellar space. The object will peak in brightness in mid-December.
