And this makes the trajectory open. There is a infinite number of them for any object. But there is only one (two, but its obvious) point which the object is moving on a closed trajectory around. And it's only a question of scale when there is enough large mass to be that point. When you escape the near-Earth orbit, you are moving hyperbolically, but just relative to the Earth. At the same time now you are on elliptic heliocentric orbit. Once you add 12 km/s and escape from the Sun, now you are orbiting the Galaxy CoM, at 200+ km/s speed. Once you add 100 km/s more, you escape from Galaxy, but now you are orbiting the galactic cluster CoM, Every time you have left the previous closed trajectory, you just pass to the next scale level, and you are on some ellipse again. And ad infinitum. At the same time you may have a quantillion of open hyperbolic orbits, relatie to quasar #76547, pulsar #596865, and other quantillion of celestial bodies. -

Granted. KFC has bought all rights on dinos, because as we know that the dinos were close to chickens and covered with feathers. I wish to rewatch all movies from my childhood which I can hardly recall.

You should find the nearest place when the snow is already rich with it. When there are uranium, neptunium, and plutonium, where are sednium, quaoarium, and makemakium? And especially, 'oumuamuaium? The only chemical element whose digraph starts from apostrophe? "'o". -

That's when are slow . The orbital speed of the Sun (and various junk stuck to it) is ~220 km/s. So, the galactic escape speed is just ~320 km/s. There is a lot of much faster objects which obviously are orbiting around something much heavier and farther. I.e. who owns the relativistic particles lost by us? There is no freedom in open space, only gravitational slavery, only change of the owner. Everything escaping from the well just immediately finds itself in a much larger and deeper well. With the same success we can say that they are orbiting Crab Nebula, or any other reference point, because there is infinite number of open trajectories and reference points. The closed trajectory differs from them principally, as you can have only one unique reference point (letting alone the reference point own motion and orbital perturbations, let the Universe be considered static for this purpose). So, as the Universe is kinda large, we should be always able to find a more bulky mass of matter the point is elliptically moving around if zoom out. Here you go. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe#Large-scale_structure -
For Questions That Don't Merit Their Own Thread

We should finally clarify the question. As everything in the Universe is orbiting orbiting something, what is that thing the superfast interstellar rogue objects are orbiting around. Say a hypermassive black hole just has whipped past the Solar System. Can we be sure that it will never return for the next attempt. If it won't, then how can all the Universal matter be finally sculpted into something big and bad, like a Universal Blackhole? If it will, what's her reference body, orbital period, and eccentricity? -
