This thing has crossed solar systems..... probably for billions of years. What are the chances of it not hitting something?
If it did, at 60 km per second or 216,000 kph, that's a pretty hard impact.
Don't worry about the little dent it might make.....
It'll buff out.
I'm sure that there is stuff out there that we still have NFI about.
We only know about these because they fired up a new telescope or something .... the more we improve what we can see, the scarier it gets

I just turn the weeds into the soil in the gardens and slash them in the paddocks, which means not many weeds and the compost down to fertilise the gardens. As for growing when everything else dies, maybe some are like winter vegetables and only grow in winter. I tend to get weeds because we let people drop of their lawn clippings as they charge them at the transfer station and they make excellent compost after a year. Got a few big piles of lawn clippings near the gate and move some to the compost heaps, which have 3/4 inch copper pipes coiled in them, which helps with hot water for the houses especially when there's no sun during winter.
As for the alien object speeding through our solar system, as Terry points out we are seeing these now because of the advances in astronomy. Doubt they are rare or alien space ships, but this one is really big and probably one of many that transit our solar system constantly. What's interesting to me is that voyager 2, is sending back information and transmissions it's not designed to do and beyond its' technological capacity, which is baffling scientists.
Who would think these ancient machines are still operating many decades after launch and have opened up some very interesting discoveries about our solar system and what's outside it, they were supposed to run out of fuel years ago. Yet according to some reports their fuel hasn't run out and is beyond the level when it left the heliosphere.
One theoretical scientist is stating that maybe the massive radiation cloud surrounding our solar system is feeding the fuel cells. Which to me if true, could mean there's an unlimited energy sources out there. All we have to do is harness the radiation arriving around a space ship before it enters and kills everyone and you have energy for ever, which would supply vehicles coming from other solar systems if they are and allow speeds beyond our understanding as the vehicles would continue accelerating.
