What temperatures did Oumuamua experience at the closest distance to the sun and might such estimation give you an idea of the composition?

I'm pretty sure that was just their internal ethernet speed, their connection to the internet would be limited not by NASA's connection but by the server's they were connecting to.

With a velocity of around 100km/s, it would take an object i would say more than a week to slingshot around the sun. In this time, shouldn't even large objects such as this be heated enough to cause structural decay if it was a common element such as hydrogen, helium or oxygen?
