“3I/ATLAS Instellar Visitor Makes Maneuvers Like An Alien Spaceship With An Engine”
“The mysterious interstellar object, which has been dubbed 3I/ATLAS, was reportedly at 29 degrees separation from the Sun. Stacked images show a “large glowing halo extending out to half a million kilometres” with at least “7 distinct jets.” According to Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb, some of them are anti-tails in the sunward direction.” FULL STORY at above link.
“The mystery surrounding the interstellar visitor in our solar system has deepened after scientists spotted it making an unexpected maneuver as it approached the sun.”
“NASA‘s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has recorded the object, largely believed to be a comet, displaying ‘non-gravitational acceleration’ as it reached its closest point to the sun on October 29.”
“Simply put, that means it appears to have been pushed by a mysterious force as it moves around the sun.”
“This push could not be explained by gravity, so something else appears to be speeding up the comet and nudging it off its expected path, which some scientists believe could be a sign the object is a spacecraft with its own engine.”
“According to the JPL readings, the interstellar object, known as 3I/ATLAS, experienced two main parts in this mysterious maneuver around our sun, one that pushed it away from the star and one which nudged it slightly to the side.” FULL STORY at above link.
