MeerKAT Detects Radio Signal From Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS — OH Lines Confirm Natural Origin (Nov. 13, 2025)

MeerKAT Detects Radio Signal From Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS — OH Lines Confirm Natural Origin (Nov. 13, 2025)

South Africa’s MeerKAT radio array detected hydroxyl absorption lines at 1665 and 1667 MHz from interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS on Oct. 24, 2025, confirming water outgassing as it neared the Sun. The signal matches classic comet chemistry and counters recent speculation about artificial origins. Earlier September attempts saw no signal. The finding marks the first radio confirmation for 3I/ATLAS.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS on Nov. 9, 2025: Tail Mystery, New Jet Images, and Where to Look This Week

Fresh images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS released today show complex jet structures but little sign of a classic dust tail, fueling debate among astronomers. Researchers dispute claims of a color change, attributing the blue-green glow to gas emissions near perihelion. The comet passed closest to the sun on Oct. 30 and is now reappearing in the pre-dawn sky. Closest approach to Earth will be about 270 million km on Dec. 19.

Sharper Black Hole Images Could Put Einstein’s Gravity to the Test: New Study Maps What Future Telescopes Must See (7 Nov 2025)

Brighter Than 10 Trillion Suns: Record Black Hole Flare 10 Billion Light‑Years Away

Astronomers have observed the brightest and most distant black hole flare ever recorded, from AGN J2245+3743, 10 billion light-years away. The flare peaked at the brightness of about 10 trillion suns, likely caused by a supermassive black hole shredding a massive star. The event is roughly 30 times more powerful than previous records. Scientists continue to monitor the fading flare.

Sharper Black Hole Images Could Put Einstein’s Gravity to the Test: New Study Maps What Future Telescopes Must See (7 Nov 2025)

A new study in Nature Astronomy sets a 2–5% image fidelity threshold for future black hole observations to distinguish Einstein’s black holes from alternatives. Simulations show that if upcoming telescopes like the upgraded Event Horizon Telescope or proposed missions reach this precision, they could rule out many rival gravity models. Current images remain consistent with Einstein’s theory.

Hidden Heat at Enceladus’ North Pole Bolsters Case for Life: Cassini Data Show Stable Ocean in New Study (Nov. 7, 2025)

Hidden Heat at Enceladus’ North Pole Bolsters Case for Life: Cassini Data Show Stable Ocean in New Study (Nov. 7, 2025)

NASA’s Cassini data show excess heat at Enceladus’ north pole, balancing heat loss at the south, according to a study in Science Advances on Nov. 7, 2025. Measurements indicate the moon’s global heat loss is about 54 gigawatts, matching predicted tidal heating from Saturn. Researchers found the north pole surface about 7 kelvin warmer than expected. The findings point to a stable subsurface ocean.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists with Surprising Bright Outburst and Ancient Origins

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists with Surprising Bright Outburst and Ancient Origins

Comet 3I/ATLAS, discovered July 1, 2025 by the ATLAS survey in Chile, is only the third known interstellar object to enter the solar system. The comet brightened rapidly as it passed the Sun on October 29, baffling astronomers and revealing strong outgassing of water vapor and carbon dioxide. It will not approach closer than 1.8 AU from Earth. Analyses suggest 3I/ATLAS may be nearly 10 billion years old.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Stuns Scientists – Brightening, Blue Glow & Mystery Acceleration

Comet 3I/ATLAS, the third known interstellar object to enter the solar system, was discovered July 1, 2025, by the ATLAS survey in Chile. It reached perihelion near October 29, passing just inside Mars’s orbit and brightening unusually fast while turning blue. NASA reported non-gravitational acceleration, likely from intense outgassing. Nickel vapor was detected in its coma at distances too cold for such metals to normally vaporize.
