You might want to clear your calendar around November 21–December 5. Why? Because according to this peer-reviewed paper, the recently discovered interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is possibly technological, intentional, and even malign.
No, this isn’t Reddit-tier fanfiction. It’s a published analysis co-authored by Harvard’s own Avi Loeb. And it lays out evidence that would make any sci-fi doomsday scenario blush:
In other words: If it’s not just a rock, it’s a recon probe.
We might be watching a silent planetary scan before a system-wide upgrade to silence.
Morale of the story: November 2025 might be your last chance to buy canned beans and a Faraday cage.
No, this isn’t Reddit-tier fanfiction. It’s a published analysis co-authored by Harvard’s own Avi Loeb. And it lays out evidence that would make any sci-fi doomsday scenario blush:
- Orbital alignments with Venus, Mars, and Jupiter that happen with a probability of less than 0.005%.
- An orbital plane that’s perfectly suited for stealthy maneuvering around our system—retrograde but hugging the ecliptic.
- A reverse Solar Oberth maneuver planned right behind the Sun, cloaked from Earth’s view, just in time to brake into the inner Solar System.
- Arrival window at Earth: late November to early December 2025.
- Evidence of non-gravitational acceleration compatible with a solar sail.
- No cometary outgassing.
- Estimated size: ~20 km. Too big to be common. Too quiet to be natural.
