Who said anything about aliens?

Dr. Abraham "Avi" Loeb, Director of Harvard's Institute for Theory and Computation.

Haaaaaaavard, go figure.

Another PhD proving it's

Piled higher & Deeper

Meanwhile, back in the real universe......

Most of the known comets come from the Oort Cloud, on the outskirts of our Solar System.

Anything traveling as fast as comet 3I/Atlas is from outside of our general area. It will travel around the Sun, and head out to the great beyond, and probably be captured gravitationally by another system, someday.

After it passes within 1 AU or less of 3 planets. Anything entering the Plane of the Ecliptic that does that has a random chance that is vanishingly tiny.

With a CO2 cloud that is 1/2 the diameter of the Sun, while traveling at 60kps, with a mass of 10-26km among other oddities makes the above random chance pass beyond vanishingly tiny into the realm of near negative numbers.
