On July 1, 2025, a mysterious object was detected within our solar system. Soon afterward, it was confirmed by NASA as the third known interstellar object ever observed by astronomers, and given a formal name: 3I/ATLAS. Since that time, the object's unusual trajectory, massive size, and anomalous behavior have captured the fascination of the scientific community, leading to questions about whether it is indeed simply an interstellar comet bearing unusual traits or whether it could be something more complex.

This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we delve into the curious story behind 3I/ATLAS and look at what we know about the object, as well as why several experts have advanced theories involving extraterrestrial technologies in relation to the mysterious interstellar visitor coursing through our solar system.
