More horsepuckey from Horsepuckey Central.

From the so-called “article:”

“”3I/ATLAS glows red in the new images with a seemingly threatening aura.””

It “glows” red because the Webb Space Telescope is an infrared telescope!

C’mon, Man!

The quote below comes from this specific article:

https://behindtheblack.com/behind-the-black/points-of-information/webb-and-spherex-space-telescope-observe-interstellar-comet-3i-atlas/

“”These results, along with all the observations by multiple other telescopes in space and on the ground, are in line with what is expected from a comet, with the kind of unique differences expected from each object. There is nothing seen so far from the data to suggest anything alien about it, despite the claims of some publicity-seeking scientists who don’t even specialize in comet research.””

Who said anything about aliens?

Settle down.

No observed comet has ever exhibited these characteristic. All of SphereX’s observations have now been confined by the James Web Telescope.

Do not dismiss it so easily as even mainstream astronomers are saying in it too unusual to be any comet ever observed, not to mention all the coincidences.

Oh, give em a break. They gotta justify their phony baloney jobs and fat paychecks somehow, don’t they???

FYI >> AI;

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) images aren’t all red because the telescope detects infrared light, which is invisible to the human eye, and these wavelengths are “colorized” or mapped to visible colors. While the light is often redshifted into the infrared, scientists assign different infrared wavelengths to visible colors (like red, green, and blue) to reveal specific details about elements and molecules, creating a full-color composite rather than simply “unshifting” the redshifted light.

Data-driven color assignment:
Scientists use color to represent specific information. They assign different infrared wavelengths to different colors (like red, green, and blue) to distinguish between various elements, molecules, and physical processes.
“Colorizing” vs. “unshifting”:

Simply unshifting the redshifted light wouldn’t be scientifically useful, as it would lose the ability to highlight details present in the infrared spectrum. Instead, the infrared data is mapped to visible colors to help us see and understand what’s happening in space, creating a “false-color” composite image.
