We have discovered two interstellar objects so far, ’Oumuamua and Comet 2I/Borisov. ’Oumuamua had no dust tail and a ...

NASA has discovered 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object, now passing through our solar system from the ...

A NASA-funded telescope in Chile identified a comet from interstellar space on July 1, marking a significant astronomical ...

An "interstellar object" is speeding toward the inner solar system, where Earth is located, astronomers have confirmed.

NASA has discovered the third known interstellar object to pass through our solar system, but the icy snowball object poses ...

Dubbed 3I/ATLAS, the comet poses no danger to Earth and will remain roughly 150 million miles away as it speeds by.

All eyes are on Comet 3I/Atlas as astronomers worldwide chase the exotic ice ball through our solar system ...

For only the third time in history, astronomers have detected a new interstellar visitor — an object from another star — blitzing into our solar system.

It's called Comet C/2024 G3 (ATLAS) and for the past few nights it has been putting on a show for Australian star-gazers. But it can't go on forever — especially because astronomers now think ...

The comet is expected to possibly be the brightest comet of the year, as it reached a magnitude of -3.4 during its perihelion—brighter than the 0.4 magnitude C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) last year.

When comet C/2024 G3 reaches perihelion, it will come within just 13.5 million kilometers of the sun—for context, Mercury, the planet closest to the sun, orbits the star at a distance of 47 ...
