So so morning but still observing 3i/Atlas this 1-26-26 morning 8 minute stack

Has been amazingly cloudy. C/2026 A1 , nothing discernible that I can tell at this point. Cloudy again tonight.

Chippy morning, evenings seem to be better now if I don’t get the clouds

So so morning but still observing 3i/Atlas this 1-26-26 morning 8 minute stack

Night session 3i/Atlas 1-25-26 25 minute stack.

Almost hour stack, definitely losing visibility will see how much longer I can still pic it up

Yeah it’s a very nice morning. 4:20 stack

Nice skies this early 1-25-26 morning. 3i/Atlas still in observation 90 second stack

Night session 1-24-26 3i/Atlas 8 minute stack Hopefully clear skies in the morning to get more observations

Good night! 3i/Atlas on a night session after many days of clouds

Almost hour long observation session with 3i/Atlas, solved star plate

Observing 3i/Atlas early this 1-20-26 morning, 21 minute stack on a clean morning

Chilly morning this 1-20-26 observing 3i/Atlas, 90 second stack

@spaceandtech_ Still catching it daily on clear sky mornings

Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb argues that the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS may be far more unusual than a normal comet and could even represent a low-probability but high-impact “black swan” event. He points out that even a small chance of alien technology would justify serious attention because an official confirmation could cause global panic, financial instability, and social unrest. Former Bank of England analyst Helen McCaw has also warned that governments should prepare for such a scenario rather than ignore it. Loeb notes that governments appear to be treating the object as sensitive, with the CIA refusing to confirm or deny having records about 3I/ATLAS and Russia’s President Putin admitting it is an unusual interstellar comet, even while dismissing any danger. New Hubble images from January 2026 revealed three perfectly symmetrical jets, a geometry that is extremely rare in natural comets and adds to the growing list of mysteries surrounding the object. According to Loeb, 3I/ATLAS shows many anomalies in its path, timing, physical behavior, and chemical composition, including strange jet activity, unusual brightness and polarization, and odd abundances of elements like nickel. While he does not claim proof of alien origin, Loeb argues that the sheer number of coincidences makes 3I/ATLAS exceptional and deserving of intense scientific scrutiny, because the implications for humanity would be enormous if even one of these anomalies points to technology rather than nature.

3i/Atlas 38 minutes of near perfect stack this early 1-19-26 over the skies of Hawaii

Very clean morning today, here at 15 minute stack.

3i/Atlas still under observation, happening now 1-19-26 2 minute stack.

42 very choppy minute stack of 3i/Atlas

Here at 16 minutes stack 3i/Atlas

Good morning 3i/Atlas. Still observable over the skies of Hawaii this early 1-18-26 90 second stack
