1I/'Oumuamua: photo
There is no physical artifact. The primary records are the survey and follow-up images (Hubble frames at MAST, Spitzer frames at IRSA, Pan-STARRS and VLT data), the MPC astrometry and the published photometry; see datasets.yaml. ESA/Hubble's release for the acceleration carries no real Hubble frame of the object [@esahubble2018heic1813].
