Here's my version. Dang thing was so bright I had to use 0.5 second sub exposures or my non blooming camera BLOOMED on the core of this guy. That's bright. This is 11 half second shots plus 4 one second shots in each RGB color. Taken through clouds that soon shut me down. How bright is this guy?

This guy is currently about 2.45 AU out there and it is receding. That would put it in the asteroid belt. So did it get belted? Sorry. I know it's done this before so likely it's own doing but still you have to wonder.
