520    "Harvard's top astronomer lays out his controversial 
       theory that our solar system was recently visited by 
       advanced alien technology from a distant star"--|cProvided
       by publisher. 
520    In late 2017 scientists at a Hawaiian observatory glimpsed
       an object soaring through our inner solar system, moving 
       so quickly that it could only have come from another star.
       Loeb showed it was not an asteroid; it was moving too fast
       along a strange orbit, and left no trail of gas or debris 
       in its wake. There was only one conceivable explanation: 
       the object was a piece of advanced technology created by a
       distant alien civilization. Here he outlines his 
       controversial theory and its profound implications: for 
       science, for religion, and for the future of our species 
       and our planet. -- adapted from jacket
