Scientists are stating that the interstellar object known as 31/ATLAS has now turned green which looks like something has “switched on.”
Scientists from the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope in Chile said the object has a rise in Cyanide and Nickel outgassing, according to a new report.
Over the weeks the mysterious object which has been called an “alien spaceship” by one scientist has turned from red to green which is “super linear” which has a rate limit not known by “the availability of photons, nor a linear response to temperature increase,” the report states.
Scientists are saying that the quick increase could “instead likely be temperature-activated and/or threshold process that is being switched on.”
“What they mean is that there is a process with some minimum temperature in order for it to get activated,” Harvard astrophysicist and 3I/ATLAS tracker Avi Loeb told The New York Post.
“Imagine that you want to buy a ticket to see a show. As long as you have a small amount of money in your pocket, you will not get in, but once you have more than some minimum, you will be able to see the show.
“The more money you have the better your seating might be, but getting into the theater requires you to cross a minimum payment. This is the threshold effect they are referring to.”
Dr Loeb wrote on Tuesday, “The ATLAS team interprets this anomalous evolution as a shift from scattering of sunlight by dust lifted from a reddened surface to the production of small, politically bright icy grains, which changed the opacity of the plume of materials shed off 3I/ATLAS.”
Earlier this month an astrophysicist has spoken out saying that the interstellar object travelling at 130,000mph “could be alien,” which comes after the theoretical physicist Dr Avi Loeb said he believes it could be an “alien spaceship.”
Neil deGrasse Tyson said the object known as 31/Atlas “could be” aliens, adding, “It’s not my first thought. I promise you it will be my last thought, but it’s in the list.”
Professor Loeb said he believes it is an alien craft of some sort to make contact with earth.
The Harvard expert said: “An encounter with an interstellar alien technology is a blind date of astronomical proportions. You don’t know what you will meet because our imagination is limited to our experience on Earth.”
He suggested a message could be sent to the spaceship using radio wave to say “Hello, welcome to our neighbourhood. Peace!” but said this could pose as a threat.
Loeb has sent alarm bells ringing as earlier this month he said the interstellar object travelling though the solar system could possibly by an “alien spaceship.”
Prof. Loeb who has been studying what is known as 31/Atlas from the Hubble Telescope, has suggested it is generating its own light, the physicist is saying he believes the alien spaceship is nuclear powered.
