New Study Upends Origin Theory of Mysterious Interstellar Object

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-10-14 05:45:48

Ever since interstellar object 3I/ATLAS streaked into our solar system, astronomers have been scrambling to understand how this likely comet got here—and more importantly, perhaps, where it came from. As only the third interstellar object ever discovered, 3I/ATLAS offers a rare chance to study remnants of solar systems beyond our own, briefly bringing the distant galaxy within reach. But before we get into the new study, imagine the Milky Way as a kind of celestial sandwich: Inside is a thin d

Why Browser Company at $610M is cheap

first, what does this price mean for the browser company? their last round valued them at $550m, so this is basically giving the previous investors their money back. in other words, bare minimum price they could sell for without somebody taking a loss. pretty bad for them: the market sees no future value, josh’s “vision” for browsers couldn’t get better than buzzwords. second, what does this price mean for atlassian? they have $3b cash, so this is 20% of their piggy bank. and with $1.2b q3 prof

These 1080p Smart Glasses Can Be Controlled With a Touch-Sensitive Ring

Smart glasses are pretty exciting right now, not just because they’re increasingly popular, but because they’re not quite mainstream yet, which means companies are still allowed to get very weird with them.

In June, a mysterious object was spotted hurtling through the inner solar system on a hyperbolic path. It was later confirmed as an interstellar object, the third such entity from outside our solar system to be seen in the night skies. The rare discovery has prompted a scientific scramble to understand the object and its origins, including potential probes to study it up close.

You may be wondering, "Is plastic contamination as dangerous as experts say?" Unfortunately, all signs point to yes.
