The anomalous acceleration of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS caught the attention of the scientific community.Recent observations detected an unexpected variation in its velocity after the body moved away from the solar environment.The phenomenon was recorded when the object had already passed its closest path to the Sun.This change in movement motivated new studies on its composition and dynamic behavior.The acceleration that surprised astron…
We Could Hitch a Ride to Unknown Frontiers on Super-Fast Interstellar Objects Like 3I/ATLAS
Mysterious interstellar object 3I/ATLAS made its closest approach to Earth on December 19, coming within just 167 million miles. Scientists have been closely monitoring the object — which is largely believed to be a natural comet and only the third of its kind to have been directly observed in the solar system — as it continued on its highly eccentric trajectory. The encounter with Earth, however, turned out to be a bit of an anticlimax, as Harv…
Farewell, Comet 3I/ATLAS As Rare Interstellar Visitor Heads Back Into Deep Space
Earth has just said goodbye to one of the rarest cosmic visitors ever observed. On December 19, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS made its closest approach to our planet before beginning its long journey back out of the solar system, offering scientists a brief but invaluable opportunity to study material formed far beyond our own stellar neighborhood, […] The post Farewell, Comet 3I/ATLAS As Rare Interstellar Visitor Heads Back Into Deep Space appear…
Astronomers have discovered that 3I/ATLAS transports methanol and other chemicals that are probably important at the origin of life. Comet 3I/ATLAS is only the third known visitor of our solar system from elsewhere Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS releases carbon-rich chemical compounds at a higher rate than almost all [...]
Breakthrough Listen Observations Of Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS - Astrobiology
The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS was discovered on July 1, 2025. There is currently no evidence to suggest that it is anything other than a natural astrophysical object. However, given the small number of such objects known (only three to date), and the plausibility of interstellar probes as a technosignature (a sign of extraterrestrial intelligence), (e.g. […] The post Breakthrough Listen Observations Of Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS appeared fi…
