Any theories on what this might be?

It seems asteroids don't have six tails, that's why it's mysterious.

And, if I read the article right, what's even more mysterious is the fact that these tails seem to change direction every 13 hours or so.

This is happening in the ass end of the universe and the Hubble telescope was able to detect it, so it has to be something really big and massive.

The tails of the asteroid are basically the asteroid evaporating, the tails get longer and shorter as they move towards and away from the source of the evaporation. The tails also point away from the source.

So if that is the case, then there are 6 sources of evaporation involved with this asteroid...all the scientist have to do is look in the right direction...the asteroids tails are pointing directly away from them.

IF it is an asteroid, then its just different sections of it falling apart, falling to pieces, and turning into debris behind it.
