This is the first and only known interstellar object to have visited our solar system, discovered a few days ago.
For all the billions spent on science budgets, we are so shit at this thing we only discovered it after it had passed us and after it had passed by the closest point to the sun. It is now on an escape trajectory, and it is too late to launch any kind of mission to it.
I think it's time to be blunt about it: the European Space Agency (ESA) is nothing more than a front for eating into billions of EU dollarinos, and the Chinese space program is nothing but a front for military technology (specifically, solid rocket motors).
It's time to either change or shut it down.
