Scientists are closely monitoring the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS as it moves across our solar system. The object could be twice as big as Manhattan, says Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb, and will come ...
Object 3I/ATLAS is now too far from Earth to aim a telescope at, but prior observations showed some unusual behavior. The anomalous nature of the object led astrophysicist Avi Loeb to apply a thought ...
An interstellar object speeding through our Solar System has been spotted spewing a metal unlike anything seen in natural comets. The Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile detected an unusual nickel ...
Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS — which is zooming through our inner solar system — appears to be emitting its own light, according to Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb. The observation by Loeb, if ...
It’s probe-ably nothing. The newly discovered Manhattan-sized interstellar object zooming through our solar system has been identified as a comet — but two Harvard scientists argue there is reason to ...
Earlier this month, astronomers were thrilled to spot an interstellar object — only the third of its kind ever observed — hurtling toward the center of the solar system on an extremely unusual ...
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Astronomers say they've spotted an object in our solar system that's believed to be from another part of the Milky Way galaxy. The European Space Agency says this is just ...
Astronomers are rolling out a welcome mat for a newly identified visitor from beyond our solar system. The object — thought to be a comet — is only the third-ever confirmed interstellar visitor to ...
