70 thousand years ago, our ancestors witnessed an unusual heavenly event

A little star known as star “Scholz” has been offered to our solar system, sending comets and asteroids from the outer points of the solar system towards its center.

At a time when people began to move from Africa and Neanderthals still lived on our planet, the star came in less than a year away from the sun.

Ecsperts believe that the trajectors of a number of far - flung rocks in our solar system still bear the sign of this close encounter with this day.

Astronauts from the University of Cambdiges and Madrid have analyzed some 340 hyperbolic objects discovered in the solar system, reports the “DaililyMail”, the Periscope broadcast.

They resemble the form of the V letter and circle around the sun rather than the typical orbit usually recognized by the current literature.

Researchers have discovered parts of this object, known as comet Oort, which was influenced by the passing of the star “Scholz”

Oort contains trillions of comets left since the birth of the universe and is thought to represent the outer limit of the sun's gravitational pull.

Discovering star “Scholz” was made public in 2015 by a team of astronomers led by Professor Eric Mamajek of Rochester University.
