Paper: Is the Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Alien Technology?

[Mark7]

I think about the only real image of 3I available during it's mars flyby was sort of cobbled together by a couple of amateur astronomers.

Later in Burns video he says an image of Mars' moon Phobos was mistaken for 3I ATLAS, that's probably the one in the twitter photo.

Here is an 1 hour long podcast by James McCanney on NASA corruption, controlled propaganda and obfuscation of science. Still listening to it, halfway trough, really worth it if you have time.

NASA and ESA completely shut down starting last Thursday Oct 2 any release of data from comet 3I/ATLAS passage of Mars. They have had time to doctor corrupt and photoshop or completely obfuscate any real data. So instead of bringing you real live coverage of this historical event, I am going through the history of NASA and ESA hiding doctoring and falsifying data to protect their pet theories. Additionally, I am posting a special science session on my Patreon channel Patreon.com/jmccsci to describe what you would see if they were honest and released the data in real time. Listen to this show then go to the patreon channel for the high level science you will not find anywhere else.

In this recent video, Richard Dolan presents a new update on the 3I Atlas. He confronts the views of journalist Ross Coulthart and Professor Avi Loeb (the fact that he's Israeli worries me a bit... mind you! Just a personal opinion).

The Mysterious Object Cruising Through Solar System Is Releasing Strange Metals, Paper Finds ​

Astronomers just made an "extremely puzzling" discovery.

Now, in a new yet-to-be-peer-reviewed paper, an international team of astronomers analyzed data collected by the European Very Large Telescope’s Ultraviolet and Visual Echelle Spectrograph (UVES) — and finding that 3I/ATLAS shows an “extreme abundance ratio” of nickel and iron in its gas plume.

interesting the high ammount of misinfo and lack of decent photos etc on this - thats an indicator which is revealing in its self !!

Interestingly, in the film Cloud Atlas, the characters have a birthmark in the shape of a comet! I don't know why the comet was called 3l/Atlas, but the analogy is obvious.

I rewatched the film and found many interesting things:
- The film depicts several stories, but they are presented interspersed, with plot twists following one another as if they were happening simultaneously. It's like revisiting several lifetimes in fifth density.
- The characters live quite vibrant lives, similar to the life of a comet.
- The characters encounter paradoxes of reality. Déjà vu. People they know but can't possibly know. Familiar music they can't. Moments that suddenly, for a moment, reveal memories from all their lives at once.
- The characters realize their paradoxes, which leads them to the concept of a soul existing outside of space and time, accessing all lives simultaneously, as if they were laid out before them on a table.
- Most of the characters constantly cross paths with one another in various roles, and the rest of the world serves as a stage for them. The characters discover that they know each other.
- The very name Cloud Atlas evokes the idea of a roadmap. A map of all lives, their intertwining, in a certain space where the soul observes them.

I'd like the comet named 3l/Atlas to convey similar ideas to everyone on Earth, as any astronomical object does in astrology. And it would allow us to see beyond its finite life, to peer through time and space.

The general buildup of anxiety and the information blackout due to NASA and others allegedly seeing the object as an alien ship and accidentally leaking this information fits very interestingly into this concept. It makes you wonder if this isn't a hoax.

I don't know why the comet was called 3l/Atlas

First the "I" stands for “Interstellar” and the 3 because it's the third object of this kind detected. Then, the NASA-funded ATLAS survey telescope in Chile first reported that the comet originated from interstellar space.

From X, a link is made between comets and the quantum field:

Comet–Sun Interaction:

The Two-Flow MechanismObservations of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS confirm anomalous outgassing behavior and stable trajectory, consistent with the dual-flow structure predicted by the open-system quantum field model.

Two synchronized streams operate in resonance:

1. Solar flow — outward field stabilization.
Photon pressure and plasma flux from the Sun regulate the comet’s motion, preventing excess acceleration and preserving its internal coherence.This outward stream forms a resistive field that balances gravitational attraction and stabilizes the comet as an active node.

2. Cometary flow — inward field transfer.
Directed toward the Sun, these jets transport nucleons and light elements from the comet’s deeper layers along solar-wind pressure lines.They create a transfer channel that both sustains the Sun’s thermonuclear activity and maintains the comet’s equilibrium within the field.The interaction of these flows establishes a dynamic equilibrium:the solar stream restrains acceleration, while the cometary outflow converts pressure into a steady exchange of matter and energy.

Together, they form a feedback cycle where radiation, plasma, and mass continuously circulate between the star and its active node.As the comet approaches perihelion, the solar wind penetrates deeper layers, releasing heavier elements and intensifying the transfer toward the Sun.

Each eruption increases the exchange rate, reinforcing thermodynamic balance within the open quantum system.
This reflects the universal principle of equilibrium:
ΔE₍matter₎ + ΔE₍field₎ = 0
ΔS₍matter₎ + ΔS₍field₎ = 0

Comets thus act as active nodes of the quantum field — participants in the continual renewal of the Solar System.Their dual-flow interaction with the Sun demonstrates how the field maintains coherence and stability through perpetual exchange.Full theoretical background:“The Quantum Field as a Universal Law of Open Systems” — Leonid Shvets, Zenodo (2025)DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17215961

It would be interesting to have the opinion of our members who are more versed in this field of study.

I do watch Michael Salla from time to time. He did put up his own investigation into 3I/Atlas from 11 different sources. But again, they all say different things about it.

Comet 3I/ATLAS is losing water 'like a fire hose' on full blast, 'rewriting what we thought we knew' about alien star systems

The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS began blasting water "like a fire hose" before it was anywhere near the sun, according to a recent study.

Researchers observed the comet scattering water unusually early in a discovery that sheds light on how the building blocks of life are distributed across other planetary systems.

"When we detect water — or even its faint ultraviolet echo, OH — from an interstellar comet, we're reading a note from another planetary system," study co-author Dennis Bodewits, a professor of physics at Auburn University in Alabama, said in a statement. "It tells us that the ingredients for life's chemistry are not unique to our own."

NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift space observatory detected hydroxyl (OH) gas, an ultraviolet by-product of water, coming off the comet when it was nearly three times farther from the sun than Earth (2.9 astronomical units away), much farther away than the region of our solar system where water ice typically turns to gas on passing comets.

Researchers calculated that the comet was shedding about 88 pounds (40 kilograms) of water per second, which is about the equivalent of a fire hose running at full blast, according to the statement released by the researchers.

Since its discovery in July, scientists have been using various telescopes to learn all they can about 3I/ATLAS. Their findings so far indicate that the comet is zooming through our solar system at speeds in excess of 130,000 mph (210,000 km/h) in an unusually flat and straight trajectory.

3I/ATLAS is likely the largest interstellar object ever seen, though researchers are still pinning down its exact size. Hubble Space Telescope data suggest that 3I/ATLAS has a maximum width of about 3.5 miles (5.6 km). 3I/ATLAS could also be the oldest comet ever seen, with one study suggesting it's around 3 billion years older than our 4.6 billion-year-old solar system.

For the new study, researchers used observations made with the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory's ultraviolet and optical telescope in July and August. The researchers suggested that the ultraviolet hydroxyl signal could be the result of sunlight heating small icy grains on the nucleus (head) of the comet, causing them to vaporize into gas.

3I/ATLAS is only the third interstellar comet ever recorded, following the discovery of the cigar-shaped 1I/'Oumuamua comet in 2017 and the pristine 2I/Borisov comet in 2019. So far, each interstellar visitor has had some differing characteristics, suggesting that there could be a variety of comet and planet-forming environments in the universe.

"Every interstellar comet so far has been a surprise," study lead author Zexi Xing, a postdoctoral researcher at Auburn University, said in the statement. "Oumuamua was dry, Borisov was rich in carbon monoxide, and now ATLAS is giving up water at a distance where we didn't expect it. Each one is rewriting what we thought we knew about how planets and comets form around stars."

Researchers have discovered that interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has been shedding water, providing insights into the building blocks of life outside of our solar system and the evolution of interstellar comets.

What if comets are not turning ice into water when they come close to the Sun, but are actively producing water when they come close to the Sun? If planets can do it, perhaps comets can do it too?
