Scientists studying an interstellar object passing through our solar system have released new images that show a mysterious, massive cylindrical shape. However, most scientists believe it’s actually a comet. NASA’s Perseverance rover sent back photos of the object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, which is said to have a green glow as it passes Mars and heads towards the sun.
One Harvard astrophysicist thinks it might be an alien craft or probe, but another expert disagrees. Dr. Horace Drew believes the strange shape seen in images could be due to camera settings and says 3I/ATLAS is likely smaller and rounder. However, he claims that recent amateur astronomer photos show a cylindrical shape.
While NASA has not commented on initial findings from the Mars flyby, space agencies worldwide are waiting for more data to process before making any conclusions. Some people think the global silence surrounding 3I/ATLAS might mean governments are hiding something about the object.
