Comet 3I/ATLAS: Green-Glowing Interstellar Visitor Nears Its Closest Earth Pass on Dec. 19, 2025

Updated: December 14, 2025 A rare messenger from another star system is sliding through our solar system right now—and it’s putting on a subtle but scientifically rich show. Comet 3I/ATLAS (also designated C/2025 N1 (ATLAS)) is only the third confirmed interstellar object ever observed inside our solar system. Over the last several days, fresh reporting and new datasets have sharpened the picture: the comet’s coma has taken on a faint green glow, and X-ray observatories are now seeing the interaction between its escaping gases and the solar wind—an unusual multiwavelength campaign that’s turning 3I/ATLAS into one of the most intensively monitored comets of 2025.

Taiwan’s stock market heads into the third week of December with momentum still intact—but with more cross-currents than the index’s steady climb might suggest.
