I meant within variability realms naturally with a possibility that some interstellar objects having a mixture of both comet & asteroid material. E.g 1I/ʻOumuamua's composition from asteroid realms to comet, due to its non gravitational acceleration from off gassing, so is more comet like in nature.

Ha! I checked to see comet ATLAS, but clouds...
Apparently this 1 is unusual so wondering if its properties are still within the realms of (comet behaviour) variability, but this is uncertain at this stage.
Undecided on doing a write up on it like this comet I did yrs ago

This is what I like about the science called physics. I recently wrote a whimsical thread on this subject (linked).
These particles have very intriguing properties...
Thanks for sharing!

I found the 1 here 1st then looked at my (other platform) archive & found that (I'd copied this 1 over from there) today, as I'd posted it there originally. I'm gradually copying everything from there over to here but it'll take some time because I've written a lot of threads on there over the yrs.

Just to add, I've also got a remote controlled Mini Helicopter but forgot I'd left it on a shelf in a bag on its own, so I'll get that out & add it to this collection & a photo of it in the next wk. I've probably got more small model airplanes stored away too but smaller in scale & type.This is most

- continuing my collection of grown up toys (childhood hobby), these are my remote (& 2 radio controlled) cars & buggies I bought over recent yrs. Unlike model airplanes I used to play with when I was younger as in my previous tweet, I didn't have remote controlled cars so this is a more recent set.
