Is 3I/ATLAS just a comet — or an intergalactic ark? A NASA spacecraft has discovered organic chemicals on 3I/ATLAS, which ...

For millions of years, a frozen wanderer drifted between the stars before slipping into our solar system as 3I/ATLAS—only the ...

Observations of interstellar object 3I/ATLAS show increased water, carbon dioxide, and organic gas release after its passage near the Sun, based on data from NASA’s SPHEREx mission ...

The arrival of 3I/ATLAS in our solar system spawned multiple proposals for a rendezvous mission to study it up close. As the third interstellar object (ISO) ever detected, the wealth of information ...

If you walk outside tonight, look up and expect to see a green streak across the sky, you're going to see nothing. The comet is around magnitude +7, which means it is roughly five times too faint for ...

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb claims humanity missed a historic chance to find alien life on interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, warning it may have been a spacecraft on a seeding mission.

The latest data from the Webb telescope (reported here) indicates that the plume of gas and dust surrounding 3I/ATLAS contains water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂), carbon monoxide (CO) and methane (CH₄) ...

Interstellar comets are the original cosmic explorers, and by studying their metallic whispers, we are learning the secrets ...

Comet 3I/ATLAS was full-on erupting into space in December 2025, after its close flyby of the sun, causing it to significantly brighten. Even water ice was quickly sublimating into gas in ...

Scientists found new evidence (or lack thereof) disproving the conspiracy theory that interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS is alien technology.

NASA's infrared telescope SPHEREx captured stunning images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS as it exited the solar system.

On February 17, the comet will make its closest approach to Earth from 94 million miles, roughly as far as the Sun.
