Ancient Space Visitor Spotted!

A massive interstellar object, 3I/ATLAS, is zooming through our solar system—and scientists just traced its origins to the old, thick part of the Milky Way! This 12-mile-wide cosmic elder is older than our sun and might actually be a giant comet. The wildest part? It’s not the first interstellar visitor—remember Oumuamua and Borisov? Each has its own wild backstory, and Oumuamua is still a UFO suspect. Astronomers are watching 3I/ATLAS closely as it swings by (safely) this December! #Science #SpaceMystery #Interstellar
