“3I/ATLAS Just VANISHED From NASA’s Radar Is More TERRIFYING Than ‘Oumuamua’ Ever Was” | Michio Kaku​

Astronomers are sounding the alarm after interstellar object 3I/ATLAS suddenly vanished from NASA’s radar systems — and experts say this could be even more mysterious and alarming than ‘Oumuamua’. The object, first spotted moving at incredible speeds through our solar system, has now disappeared without a trace.

Dr. Michio Kaku and other top physicists are now questioning what’s really happening out there in the deep void. Was 3I/ATLAS just a comet — or something far more advanced than we can understand? Some new data suggests it may have changed trajectory… on its own.

This could change how we understand interstellar visitors forever — and raise new questions about what’s truly passing through our solar system.

Avi Loeb: 3I/ATLAS Sent a Signal in 1977 (99% Chance) | Science for Sleep​

Avi Loeb: 3I/ATLAS Sent a Signal in 1977 (99% Chance) | Science for Sleep

What if a famous signal from the past wasn't random noise, but a deliberate message from a passing visitor? In this bedtime exploration of cosmic mysteries, we follow Avi Loeb's striking hypothesis about 3I/ATLAS—the interstellar object that may have sent humanity a transmission decades before we ever knew it existed. From the iconic 1977 detection to the mathematics of impossible timing, we'll drift between radio whispers and orbital mechanics, exploring how an object from beyond our solar system could have called out to us long before its arrival.

Why does the thought of an earlier contact change everything? What does it mean when the timeline of discovery gets rewritten by a wandering messenger? Tonight, we lean into the improbable, tracing the threads of signal analysis, cosmic coincidence, and the audacious questions that connect us across time and space.

This is sleepy science for cosmic dreamers: gentle musings on messages, probability, and the imagination's restless pull toward contact. Perfect for those who want to drift off with interstellar puzzles close at hand, who find comfort in the unknown, and who let wonder guide them toward sleep.

If this tale of signals and certainty has stirred your night, consider liking and subscribing for more science told in starlight. Here's to quiet minds, endless skies, and the wonder of what reaches out across the void.WiederholenClaude kann Fehler machen. Bitte überprüfen Sie die Antworten.

Don't know. How to tell?

Seeing as how NASA is closed because of the gov shutdown, there isn't any way to verify the claims.

"NASA is currently closed due to a lapse in government funding.
Employees can visit nasa.gov/shutdown for additional information." - nasa.gov

NEWEST COMET ATLAS OBSERVATIONS

The comet is exactly where it is supposed to be. It has NOT sped up or slowed down - no non-gravitational acceleration.

Why did you hear otherwise? They straight up lied. It's perfectly where it is supposed to be.

ALL anomalous chemistry and EM/ED tail signatures are due to it being the most electronegative comet ever seen, which is not shocking given that it came from somewhere else.

It's a comet.

So much BS related to this comet. Avi Loeb is an AH, I guess he wants attention.

Astronomers Have Found a New Object Flying Between Comet 3I/Atlas and Earth
LADbible

Astronomers have recently found yet another thing floating about, and this too, doesn’t have the tell-tale tail of a comet. Moving between 3IATLAS and Earth with no tail, the ‘comet’ was found to be 105,078,392.0 kilometres away from Earth, or 0.7024056659 Astronomical Units, which is about five and a half months away.

Its closest approach to Earth is thought to occur on 11 November 2025, when it passes at about 103 million kilometers away from us.
