Organisms on 3I/ATLAS? Telltale methane signatures detected: Avi Loeb
Key Points:
- NASA's analysis suggests the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS could be up to 12 billion years old, containing carbon and other life-forming elements, making it potentially older than our solar system.
- Harvard physicist Avi Loeb highlighted that 3I/ATLAS emitted methane, which could be a biosignature indicating possible microbial life within the comet.
- Despite initial speculations by Loeb's Galileo Project about the comet being alien technology, NASA maintains it is a naturally occurring, though unusual, interstellar comet.
- Loeb now leads a new UAP Science Advisory Council formed to advise federal authorities on unidentified anomalous phenomena, aiming to improve data collection and assess potential national security threats.
- The panel's work follows increased government transparency on UFO files, with Loeb expressing hope for cooperative efforts to understand these phenomena without suspicion.
