Oort Cloud
Summary

Comets originating from the Oort cloud may have interstellar origins due to the mixing that occurs in the cloud, potentially making them a useful resource for civilizations. The lack of reflection of light from the sun can make it difficult to detect these comets, though some have been identified through their peculiar spectral signatures.

Outer Solar System
Summary

By tuning instrumentation and cameras to view the universe correctly, we can map out the rich architecture of the outer solar system. The development of cameras with high astronomic fidelity enables us to take precise measurements through passive radar systems.
