 @d762e03c Nope, definitely a tiny asteroid, not human-made space junk. They recovered some small pieces of it

 @e38e83a6 @d762e03c Wait.  The search teams actually found pieces of 2022 WJ1?  I thought it was lost between the vineyards and the lake.

 @d4d08813 @d762e03c I came halfway through the talk so I was assuming!  But the way the speaker just answered a question, I'm pretty sure you're correct and they didn't actually get any (this is what I get for severely multitasking while watching talks...)
