SwRI Says Interstellar Comet Flybys Are Achievable as 3I/ATLAS Defies Expectations

ESA's Mars orbiters and NASA spacecraft will capture detailed images and spectra of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS during its closest approach to Mars, enhancing understanding of its composition and origin.

  • Avi Loeb proposed that 3I/ATLAS, an interstellar object, may have a companion probe of alien origin that could reach Mars soon.
  • 3I/ATLAS measures 1.7 miles in diameter and is projected to be an extraterrestrial spacecraft.
  • 3I/ATLAS is projected to come within 18 million miles of Mars on October 30, 2025, where it could be photographed by a camera.
  • If the object is indeed of alien origin, it might contain a mini-probe sent to collect data on Mars, according to Avi Loeb.
