According to NASA, today (3 October) is actually the day when it's going to come 'closest' to Mars, though closest in this case is still 18.6 million miles, which is a really long way.
When 1I/'Oumuamua was first spotted in 2017, astronomers quickly determined that it came from outside the solar system. But although it was initially classified as a comet from another star system, it ...
NASA aims to study rocky planets similar to Earth and analyse their atmospheres for biosignatures. The James Webb Space Telescope has already examined over 100 exoplanet atmospheres.
Enter the European Space Agency’s two Mars satellites, which now have their cameras pointed at 3I/ATLAS. The comet also could ...
