US EditionSpace object moving at incredible speed 'may be alien spacecraft'
JUL 28 – Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb and colleagues propose 3I/ATLAS may be an alien probe with unusual speed and trajectory, possibly requiring defensive measures, study says.
- Upon discovery on July 1, 3I/ATLAS, an interstellar object, is the third known visitor to our solar system, fueling speculation it may be alien spacecraft.
- In a recent draft paper, Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb claims anomalies in 3I/ATLAS suggest it may be an artificial, potentially alien, spacecraft, though natural explanations exist.
- Rare calculations indicate the interstellar object’s alignment is so precise it would occur only 0.005% of the time by chance, suggesting it may be alien spacecraft, researchers claim.
- Scientists counter, with southern hemisphere observatories planning to collect critical data before and after perihelion, while experts argue the visible coma indicates natural cometary behavior.
- On July 1, the object is set to reach perihelion and may pass within 223 million miles of Earth.

Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has become viral on social media as an alien spaceship, but it is only a natural frozen body in transit: no signals, maneuvers or threats.
Space scientists provided a disturbing update on the mysterious “interstellar object” that is going through our solar system at great speed. With data from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, experts revealed how big the object really is, called 3I/ATLAS. According to their analysis, the rock measures approximately 11 kilometers in diameter, which is equivalent to it being larger than Mount Everest. Thus, comet 3I/ATLAS is the largest interstellar ob…
The 3I/ATLAS interstellar object has attracted the attention of the scientific community since its discovery. This phenomenon has raised concerns about its nature, which has led to speculations that it could be of alien origin. Discoverers and analysts, including the prominent scientist Avi Loeb of Harvard, are exploring the implications of this object, [...] The post Not a spaceship; comet 3l/ATLAS is not dangerous for Earth appeared first on O…
In recent weeks, the idea has circulated that 3I/ATLAS could be an extraterrestrial spacecraft sent toward Earth. But what does NASA say? The hypothesis was put forward by astrophysicist Avi Loeb, along with Adam Hibberd and Adam Crowl, who maintain that some orbital characteristics of the object could point to alien technology. Faced with this scenario, NASA and other scientists have dismissed this possibility, confirming that 3I/ATLAS is a nat…
