The mysterious interstellar comet 31/ATLAS has sparked worldwide speculation, and theoretical physicist Avi Loeb is once again at the center of the storm — boldly suggesting the object may actually be a spaceship sent by Aliens.
His controversial claims have reignited a debate that stretches from NASA’s press briefings to true believers waiting for proof of extraterrestrial life.
A Rare Visitor From Beyond the Solar System
3I/ATLAS is only the third confirmed interstellar object ever observed entering our solar system. Unlike typical comets born in the Oort Cloud or Kuiper Belt, 31/ATLAS is passing through from another star system, making it inherently unusual and scientifically valuable.
According to Loeb, its “precise trajectory” and “non-gravitational acceleration” could indicate more than natural forces at play.
As he stated in his blog, “If the rare coincidence between the perijove distance and the Hill radius materializes, it might flag a technological signature.”
