It must have been launchd from a satellite. Watch it backwards and find out when it comes REALLY close to a space craft (because the faster you go the more inaccurate)

I think he is asking why is there a teapot object in space. As it shows in Solar System - Spacecraft or whatever

[monmarfori]

It's Russel's Teapot and it's in orbit between the Earth and Mars.

I'm confused. Is it real or just something someone made up?

The teapot is imaginary.

You can find the teapot in orbit between the Earth and Mars in the 'Our Solar System - Spacecraft' simulation. This only simulates what it might be like if there really was a china teapot in space. Everything else in that particular simulation is based on reality.
