Astrophysicists predict origins of unexpected space objects in solar system and Alpha Centauri

Interstellar material has been discovered in our solar system, but researchers continue to hunt for where it came from and how it got here. A new study led by Western astrophysicists Cole Gregg and Paul Wiegert recommends Alpha Centauri--the next closest solar system to ours--is a great place to start, highlighting how and why it's a prime target.
