The object 3I/ATLAS made it past the Sun in one piece, which led Harvard astronomer to double down on his earlier argument about the object's nature.

Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket was scheduled for launch on Sunday (Nov. 9) but it has been delayed until Wednesday (Nov. 12) due to poor weather conditions. The launch will be the first big test for the rocket’s first NASA mission, and a statement of intent for the company’s founder Jeff Bezos against competitor SpaceX.

Scientists say 3I/Atlas came closest to Mars in October. Its path this month put it in the path of the warm rays of our sun, where a tail became more visible. The 3.5-mile solar object is traveling at 137,000 miles per hour, NASA said.

A mysterious visitor from beyond our solar system is making a rare appearance: Comet 3i/ATLAS is an interstellar comet, traveling at breakneck speed and carrying clues from a distant star system billions of years old.

Fresh photographs taken by British astronomers show ATLAS sporting two gigantic jets: a 620,000-mile “anti-tail” pointed toward the Sun and a 1.8-million-mile trail shooting the opposite way.
