I/ATLAS has proven a theory created by Einstein over a century ago, but the way it did it may also prove it's really an interstellar spacecraft.

The object has just made a strange move around the sun which could suggest it has an engine powering its flight through the ...

Recent observations of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS show that it has developed a faint blueish hue, hinting at a potential color change. This is the third time experts have seen the comet's ...
