Professor Says Mysterious Interstellar Object May Be Releasing Sentinels Around Jupiter

Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is expected to make its closest pass of the Earth just under a month from now, coming within around 170 million miles of us. Three months later, it’s expected to get even closer to Jupiter as it continues on its highly eccentric path through the solar system. And as Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb — who has long championed the theory that 3I/ATLAS could be an alien spacecraft, to the increasing dismay of the mainstream r…

Alien Tech Near Jupiter? Harvard Professor Unveils Theory About Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS

The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS was first detected in 2017 and has since become a subject of intense interest. Expected to pass near Earth in early 2026, it will make a closer approach to Jupiter in March 2025. Its unusual behavior has prompted Avi Loeb to propose a radical idea: what if 3I/ATLAS is not a natural comet, but rather an alien probe? According to Loeb, who has long speculated that extraterrestrial technology might be hidden in plai…

Harvard Scientist Suggests 3I/ATLAS Might Release Alien Spy Probes Near Jupiter

3I/ATLAS and its trajectory, taken on Oct. 2, 2025 | NASASpace watchers already had 3I/ATLAS flagged as a curiosity. Heck, we only just recently reported that certain folks might think it houses teensy alien robot spiders. Now, a high-profile astrophysicist thinks it might have plans that don’t include Earth at all, at least not yet. Avi Loeb of Harvard looked at the interstellar object’s flight path and suggested it might not just be on a passi…

3I/ATLAS Trajectory: Harvard Scientist Claims Object Is Sending Spy 'Satellites'

The universe has always been an exhibition of unpredictable natural phenomena, but what if our newest cosmic visitor is deliberately defying nature's rules? Since the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS first appeared in July 2025, it has been widely described as merely the third confirmed interloper from outside our solar system, following the famous 'Oumuamua and Borisov. Yet, the characteristics of this Manhattan-sized celestial body have led one of…
