MUFON's Photo Analysis Team Investigates What Exactly is 3i/atlas?
Oct 18, 2025
MUFON's photo analysis team examines 3i/Atlas, a recently discovered interstellar object. Experts debate its size and composition, analyzing images from various telescopes, including the Perseverance rover. The unusual trajectory and chemical makeup raise questions about its origins.
3i/Atlas is an enigmatic interstellar object possibly the size of Manhattan that was discovered several months ago traversing our Solar System passing relatively close to Venus, Mars and Jupiter. The Mars Perseverance Rover even took a photo of it as it passed by Mars. It is the 3rd known interstellar object to pass through our system. The first two being Oumuamua and 2I/Borisov. This object came into the public Zeitgeist after Harvard Professor Avi Loeb suggested it could possibly be alien technology. He was concerned that after it passes behind the Sun and out of Earth's field of vision, it could be a malevolent mothership that would release a sneak attack on Earth. But is it really just an unusual comet from a galaxy far far away?
