Avi Loeb's WARNING: Watch Out for THIS When 3i/ATLAS Nears The Sun!
Win EXTRATERRESTRIAL METAL - a real meteorite💥 enter at briankeating.com/yt 💥 What happens when 3I/ATLAS dives toward the Sun? One signature could expose interstellar origins, hidden composition, and non-gravitational forces at play. Loeb pinpoints what to watch: abrupt brightening vs. erosion, outgassing asymmetry, and dust-to-gas shifts that defy textbook comets. If it flares the “wrong” way, the implications are seismic—on formation models, radiation-driven activity, even interstellar visitors. Miss this, and you’ll miss the moment the solar corona turns a mystery object into a lab experiment. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb joins me to discuss the latest revelations about interstellar object 3I/ATLAS as it makes its closest approach to Mars. From HiRISE images to unusual chemistry, polarization anomalies, and even a potential link to the Wow! Signal, this conversation explores whether 3I/ATLAS is a natural comet or a possible technological artifact. Along the way, we cover censorship from Galileo to today’s UAP debates, the “Sputnik moment” of interstellar objects, and what a global response might look like.
