26.08.2025 03:14 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Today our team released findings on the nature of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS, based on our first round of JWST observations. The data are incredible: Not only did we detect and map gas and dust in the coma, but we found that 3I is one of the most CO2 rich comets ever seen! Check it out:

There are still a lot of mysteries surrounding where Earth got it's surprisingly large water supply from, but impacts from icy comets during Earth's infancy, is a strong contender.

Go back and check the original ALMA press release - it talks about survival of organisms, "confirming the existence of life", and states that non-biological production of PH3 is excluded!
