According to TA it is orbiting the sun. The closest point out will be at beyond Saturn's orbit, the farthest will be 30-50k AU. Of course, there are some error bars on these numbers that I can't interpret, and given that it orbits that far out, its orbit might actually be influenced by neighboring stars as well.
- gshubert17 5y agoIt amazes me that it last visited the "inner" solar system 2.75 million years ago. And after perturbations its next approach will be 4.5 million years from now. Its aphelion distance will be about 0.8 lightyear.
