15 Weirdest Asteroids Ever Discovered
In this video I talk about an asteroid with two rings, an asteroid with three moons, an asteroid that takes 60,000 years to orbit, an asteroid from outside of the solar system and more. The solar system alone, although just one of many, is an incomprehensibly large place, it has an enormous amount of objects, at the moment around 1.2 million asteroids have been discovered and of those some have very odd features.
Intro, outro and many other clips in this video were made with Space Engine.
