Avi Loeb Responds To NASA’s New 3I/ATLAS Imagery – Lands With a Thud As Forensic Review Shows Only a Faint, Uneven Glow
Most of what appears around 3I/ATLAS in this image is not comet structure at all but coronagraphic interference—diffuse patterns produced by scattered sunlight interacting with the instrument’s internal optical components. The result is an image that detects the comet but cannot accurately describe it.
The honest conclusion is straightforward: nothing in this SOHO image confirms the presence of multiple jets, anti-tails, non-gravitational acceleration, or any technological interpretation. Yet nothing in it disproves these possibilities either. The resolution is simply too low to support or challenge any theory. Loeb’s critique stands uncontested. The images are blurry, scientifically thin, and ultimately uninformative. The real mystery of 3I/ATLAS remains in the higher-resolution data that the world is still waiting to see.
OFFICIAL STATEMENTS / VERIFIED QUOTES:
“This image was… fuzzy. There was no new insight offered by them.” — Avi Loeb
“The data is far more interesting. It shows jets… multiple jets going in different directions.” — Avi Loeb
