The interstellar visitor will pass just 30 million kilometers from Mars on Oct. 3 — far closer than it comes to Earth. The European Space Agency (ESA) is preparing for a unique opportunity to study ...
"It's like an aeon-old fridge, which will open during the next months to release some of its contents." New research investigates the possibility that different spacecraft could visit Comet 3I/ATLAS, ...
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and Harvard Scientist Avi Loeb are calling for NASA to monitor the Manhattan-sized interstellar object 3I/ATLAS as it passes the sun on Halloween Eve to ensure it does not drop ...
The Very Large Telescope (VLT) detected significant nickel vapor but almost no iron in the interstellar 3I/Atlas comet. Having nickel without iron is not a chemical signature found in known natural ...
Teddy Atlas has given his expert take on Canelo Alvarez sparring Jaron 'Boots' Ennis for the Terence Crawford fight. September 13 marks the biggest fight in recent memory as Canelo takes on Crawford ...
All (or at least most) astronomical eyes are on 3I/ATLAS, our most recent interstellar visitor that was discovered in early July. Given its relatively short observational window in our solar system, ...
There's nothing quite like being neck-deep in water the color of good sweet tea when someone a few feet away says "Hey, I think these are fresh slide and gator tracks!" (Ask me how I know.) To avoid ...
Comet 3I/ATLAS is just the third observed interstellar object ever witnessed in Earth's solar system. The Gemini South telescope in Chile is the latest observatory to get a glimpse of the object as it ...
Astronomers have found something strange in the James Webb Space Telescope's first images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it hurtles toward our sun, according to a new study. The telescope's initial ...
NASA’s SPHEREx joined Webb and Hubble in studying interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, gathering data on its size, chemistry, and physical traits. While harmless to Earth, the comet provides scientists a rare ...
A comet known as 3I/ATLAS made news when it was confirmed to be the 3rd-ever object observed to have originated outside Earth's solar system. Though the object poses no threat to Earth, astronomers ...
