The most insightful discussion I seen on the Loeb and his insertion into the 3I/Atlas apparition: tinieblasyestrellas.blogspot.com/2025/11/the-...

The files we’ve all been waiting for are finally getting released…

The Thing 2? John Carpenter, during an October 2025 appearance at Fan Expo Philadelphia: “We’re working on it now. I don't know...we'll see." He's been saying the same thing for years. 😁

Any planetary scientists want to help me out with Avi's latest? avi-loeb.medium.com/3i-atlas-is-... 3I/ATLAS has apparently passed his new totally-made-up test for being a spacecraft. I don't think anyone is surprised it's still in one piece but we're way outside my (and his) expertise here. 🔭🧪

I've summarized the truth about Loeb's 10 "anomalies" about 3I/ATLAS in one post. Thanks to @deschscoveries.bsky.social @michael-w-busch.bsky.social @cometary.org and @marshall-eubanks.bsky.social for contributing their expertise!

Dear military history enthusiasts, note anything odd about this book cover? And yeah, it’s a real thing. blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

Last night at the planetarium one of our regulars gave me this old tie tack that had belonged to his dad. I recognized it immediately. It is of Telstar, the world’s first communications satellite. Telstar 1 was launched several months before I was born.

Indeed…definitely the B Ark

New morphology in the tail of comet 3I/Atlas will inevitably be spun by the quack Avi Loeb as some evidence of alien activity. This is nothing new, we've seen similar behavior in other comes including 17P, C/2016 R2, and C/1961 R1, and others. It's ionized carbon monoxide. #3I #3I/Atlas #Comet 🔭

A 3-tonne Chinese rocket stage (CZ-3B Y67 stage 3, object 44867) launched in Dec 2019 and abandoned in orbit, made an uncontrolled reentry over eastern Florida at about 1120 UTC Nov 8 and was widely observed.

The interstellar object #3I/ATLAS has sparked fascination bc, as it approached the Sun, it behaved in unexpected ways, brightening & showing a bluish tint instead of reddening. But none of this requires a non-natural explanation. As the object nears the Sun, its surface ices begin to vaporize. 1/7

Mars 1, the first spacecraft sent by any nation to fly past Mars, was launched from Baikonur #OTD in 1962. It was the first spacecraft to fly by Mars on June 19, 1963, although communications had been lost in March, before it reached the planet.

This is our moment to be heard. Don’t sit this one out.

This is a very good point about DHS. They direct harassment campaigns on Twitter using quote-tweets.

You can always tell these companies are full of BS because they lack the coherent details of any of this to make sense: - what materials is the reflector made from? (because costs) - What is the product lifetime? How will they be disposed? - How are they maintained / kept in orbit? (continued...)

CHOTINER: So let me get this straight. Anti-racists are the real racists, is that correct? THIEL: right. CHOTINER: and the anti-fascists? THIEL: right, they’re the real fascists CHOTINER: So now you’re saying Greta is the Antichrist. THIEL: … CHOTINER: I think you can see where I’m going with this.

Venera 15, the first of two Soviet radar imaging orbiter designed to make detailed radar maps of Venus' surface at a resolution of 1 to 2 km, entered orbit around Venus #OTD in 1983. Last contact was made with the spacecraft on January 5, 1985.

Bit amazed by this bit: 'Investigators said they found a degraded gasket had created a fuel system leak, which caused the power loss. The agency found the system was "at least 70-years-old and its last overhaul date was unknown"'

How many trillions of dollars have been invested into this technology so far?

Almost aspirational levels of pettiness here. I too would like a pillar erected to my personal gripes.
