'Oumuamua on BBC's Sky at Night this month - Sunday 10pm BBC4 plus repeats and iPlayer

The space interloper 'Oumuamua is spinning chaotically and will carry on doing so for more than a billion years.
That is the conclusion of new Belfast research that has examined in detail the light bouncing off the cigar-shaped asteroid from outside our Solar System.
"At some point or another it's been in a collision," says Dr Wes Fraser from Queen's University.
His team's latest study is featured in Sunday's Sky At Night episode on the BBC and published in Nature Astronomy.
