Here is a new report on 3I/ATLAS, specifically on our reevaluation of the 3I/ATLAS magnitude drift model with all of the new post-perihelion data now available.

There are more PUNCH (orbital) and COBS (ground based) magnitude data for our interstellar visitor, 3I / ATLAS. It is a little too soon to say its brightness is declining as expected, but I think that (as expected) it has clearly stopped its pre-perihelion brightening trend.

New image of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS by M. Jäger, G. Rhemann & E. Prosperi.
Avi Loeb's: "Is the network of jets associated with pockets of ice on the surface of a natural cometary nucleus or are they coming from a set of jet thrusters used for navigation of a spacecraft? We do not know."

Post perihelion optical data on our interstellar visitor, 3I/ATLAS.

- the G band optical data seems to be about 1.7 magnitudes high (i.e., fainter) than PUNCH since early September.

- my model is about 0.6 magnitudes lower (i.e., brighter) than either PUNCH and LASCO C3

Hello Sentinel-1D! 👋

Yesterday the satellite launched into orbit, and Meteosat-12's FCI instrument was ready to capture the moment from space.

Below: views in the 0.6µm channel (L) and (R) Rocket Plume RGB, revealing the rocket’s exhaust plume in the both visible and infrared range. 🚀

A new R band magnitude from today for our interstellar visitor, 3I/ATLAS. Note that we expect these "red" magnitudes to be below the wide band magnitudes including the green gas coma.

We can expect 3I to decline in brightness now - the question is, how fast?

Der interstellare Komet ATLAS kann inzwischen wieder von der Erde aus beobachtet werden: hier - scicomm.xyz/@qicheng@com... - ein Bild von gestern aus Arizona mit einem 15-cm-Teleskop, aus dem eine erfreulich große visuelle Helligkeit von ~9,7 mag. folgt. Ein kleines Fernrohr sollte reichen.

We now have roughly complete magnitude data for our interstellar visitor 3I / ATLAS, up to its perihelion

This includes SOHO LASCO and GOES-19 CCOR-1 data from arxiv.org/abs/2510.25035

This plot looks pretty good to me. My congratulations to all those who worked so hard on this.

Comet 3I/ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on 19 December 2025 at a distance of around 1.8 AU.

No aliens will visit us, and it won't burn up in the sun!
