The Thing 2?

John Carpenter, during an October 2025 appearance at Fan Expo Philadelphia: “We’re working on it now. I don't know...we'll see."

He's been saying the same thing for years. 😁

Any planetary scientists want to help me out with Avi's latest?

3I/ATLAS has apparently passed his new totally-made-up test for being a spacecraft. I don't think anyone is surprised it's still in one piece but we're way outside my (and his) expertise here.

3I/ATLAS is Still a Single Body with a Sunward Anti-Tail After Perihelion!
Breaking News: The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS did not break up near the Sun.

Loeb’s 3I/ATLAS “Anomalies” Explained
Avi Loeb continues to claim that 3I/ATLAS has many anomalous behaviors that lead to the conclusion that it “might” be an alien spacecraft.  He carefully hedges the probability that it is a spacecraft ...

Last night at the planetarium one of our regulars gave me this old tie tack that had belonged to his dad. I recognized it immediately. It is of Telstar, the world’s first communications satellite. Telstar 1 was launched several months before I was born.

Indeed…definitely the B Ark
Speaking as a spacecraft engineer, the thing that gets me about Loeb's interpretations is that his alien engineers are insultingly incompetent.

And 'Oumuamua was a *terrible* solar sail.

New morphology in the tail of comet 3I/Atlas will inevitably be spun by the quack Avi Loeb as some evidence of alien activity. This is nothing new, we've seen similar behavior in other comes including 17P, C/2016 R2, and C/1961 R1, and others. It's ionized carbon monoxide. #3I #3I/Atlas #Comet 🔭

The interstellar object #3I/ATLAS has sparked fascination bc, as it approached the Sun, it behaved in unexpected ways, brightening & showing a bluish tint instead of reddening. But none of this requires a non-natural explanation. As the object nears the Sun, its surface ices begin to vaporize. 1/7

Mars 1, the first spacecraft sent by any nation to fly past Mars, was launched from Baikonur #OTD in 1962. It was the first spacecraft to fly by Mars on June 19, 1963, although communications had been lost in March, before it reached the planet.

Tagging @drspacejunk.bsky.social and @cosmicrami.com into this so we remember, be roo talk about it in tomorrow night’s recording. I can’t see it on the ABC News website yet though.
A Whyalla vet’s Tesla has been hit by a UFO (allegedly a meteorite) while driving to Port Augusta.

Which asks the questions:

- First time a Tesla has been hit by an object from #space?

- First known example of a car actually being driven that’s been hit by a meteorite?
