Avi? Brother? (3I/ATLAS)

 

First of all 

your blog post are starting

 to be more and more fluff these days

kinda like the NASA news conference was.


And?

I always had my doubts about this:


An Extraordinary New Anomaly of 3I/ATLAS

Avi Loeb Medium 11/23/25

"In other words, the non-gravitational acceleration introduced a small course correction of exactly the magnitude needed to bring the minimum distance of 3I/ATLAS from Jupiter to the value of Jupiter’s Hill radius. 3I/ATLAS would have missed the edge of the Hill sphere otherwise."


I didnt really say that much about it 

because it just seemed to be to kind of a "stretch" if you will, and? 

Being by Jupiter kinda made it irrelevant as far as I was concerned. 

It just seemed like a stretch to get 3I/ATLAS a "13th anomaly."

But I gave you the benefit of the doubt.


I can just here the conversation:


"Well we cant let it 

just have 12

anomalies Bob

that assigns 

potential religious significance 

to it

better to make it have 13."


And then:

Updates on 

the Non-gravitational Acceleration 

of 3I/ATLAS

Avi Loeb Medium 11/27/25


"Given these revisions, the new JPL Horizons forecast for the perijove distance of 3I/ATLAS is now 53.587 (+/- 0.045) million kilometers, slightly outside the Hill radius on March 16, 2026."

(And Avi goes on to say he doesnt 

think those revisions are correct.)


Avi?

This community is gonna go with

3I/ATLAS has

12 anomalies.


And if you get to think:

"the new JPL Horizons forecast"

are incorrect?

Because they didn't like your

"13th anomaly"?


This community

also thinks

"the new JPL Horizons forecast"

are incorrect albeit

for very different reasons.


Things are happening 

just like me and honey said they would be.

back in July.


The best images of 3I/ATLS

we are getting these days

 are from ground based

amateur astronomers 

and astrophotographers.


Not NASA's armada of spacecraft 

they have watching it.


Now just why would that be?




An amateur astronomer

is gonna break this thing wide open

here before to long.
