A "UNIQUE" celestial object has been caught hurtling through space at one million miles per hour - so fast it may leave the galaxy, according to Nasa.
According to scientists, a space object must tick three boxes before it can be classified as a planet.The second is that it’s big enough — and generates enough gravity — to pull itself into a spherical shape.
