Saying “strange and mysterious “ makes me wonder about the author of the article not about the object

[Pontiac]

This is true.

We are continually learning how little we know.

God keeps us busy by sprinkling little clues around the universe.

God has a wicked sense of humor.

And appears to be on a course that will take it to a real space mystery ... if it is not in the process of disintegrating.

The young solar system [ TYC8241-2652-1 ] it was a proto-planetarry system with a disk of quadrillions of tons of material surrounding a sun. But a few years later, the disk was almost gone - 10 million trillion tons of mass gone. No cogent astronomical explanation given. The system is about 500 light years distant or about the time of the European Renaissance when the material disappeared.

3I, coming from the vicinity of the galactic core, is on course for that system. Odds for that chance are huge against it [ 60,000:1 ]. Another anomaly. It will take multiple course adjustments like gravity assist maneuvers around other suns to actually get there.

My wife complains about my outgassing all the time. I blame it on the cats.

It says “send more Chuck Berry”😜.

[BiteYourSelf]

Aww yah beat me to it.😁

They’re firing their retro rockets to slow down and take a look at our little solar system.

[Ancesthntr]

Optical images captured on November 9 reveal that 3I/ATLAS is ejecting enormous jets of material both toward and away from the sun.

Manoeuvering thrusters.

My first thought was “retrorockets.” Same thing.

Let’s hope that elements of this story are sensationalized crap, because I am not anxious for intelligent alien life (or their AI) to be examining us. Any civilization capable of sending such a probe could crush us like a bug in very short order.

Is that you Gary Seven? You didn’t bring that damned cat did you?

Hopefully, he at least brought Teri Garr along.

[BigFreakinToad]

Yeah, Teri was pretty hot back then

[SaveFerris]

We still need the picture!! 🖼️ 😄🤣😍

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Thank you! Its a comet, exotic and extra terrestrial, and not a spaceship.

PING!..................

[Red Badger]

In an interview, she said that she and Michael Rennie would bust out laughing during the filming when they had to say those words they sounded so ridiculous...............

[rktman]

There asking if Biden is still in charge. Those jokester aliens huh?
