3i/ATLAS – A Comet, Asteroid,
or Something with Conscious Intent?
By Ken G
In preparation for our Thursday, 9/18/25 Ascension Connection call on this topic, I enlisted the help of Grok. Fair warning – This is an 8 to 10 minute read. But you’ll be glad you did!
What do we know thus far? Should we be prepared for adversarial experiences? How do we prepare, absent of fear but yet enabled to educate ourselves as much as possible? And for what purpose would we take any precautions while knowing how futile any human efforts could be?
Headlines have suggested that this visiting space object is both, nothing more than a happenstance occurrence involving space matter and also an intentional act by an advance intelligence, organic or otherwise, while others suggest benevolent Beings are here to do an analysis of our spiritual growth towards Humanity’s Ascension.
Given what appears to be new information released almost daily toward all of these possibilities, we need to identify exactly what is flying at us.
Having decided to take on the task doing research into 3i/ATLAS (out of my own curiosity), I found it nearly impossible due to the extensive amount of new information being released almost daily. It is an apparent Comet / Astroid that is coming closer to Earth, with greater speed, size, and brightness than anything else previously. It’s an oddity.
I decided to work with AI, specifically Grok3, to assist in determining what we should know, or be concerned about, as a Human Being residing in a 3 dimensional world. I then asked a second question from the standpoint of our Spiritual nature, and are about to go through a Spiritual Ascension process.
I urge you to read both responses and it may be required to do a ‘study-read’ to grasp what Grok3 suggests. This can be a big nothing-burger, something that should scare all of us and/or something that mandates our attention and action from within ourselves.
These are the Questions asked and the answers Grok3 provided:
“Can you compose an article about pertinent details of the approaching 3i/Atlas and follow up concerns humans should consider as a result?”
The Interstellar Visitor: Unraveling the Mysteries of Comet 3I/ATLAS
As humanity’s gaze turns skyward in the crisp September air of 2025, astronomers worldwide are fixated on a cosmic interloper hurtling through our solar system. Designated Comet 3I/ATLAS—or simply C/2025 N1 (ATLAS)—this enigmatic object is the third confirmed interstellar visitor to grace our neighborhood, following the enigmatic ‘Oumuamua in 2017 and Comet 2I/Borisov in 2019. Unlike the comets that orbit our Sun in predictable ellipses, 3I/ATLAS traces a hyperbolic path, a straight shot from the void of interstellar space, destined to sling past the Sun and vanish back into the galaxy’s expanse.
Discovered on July 1, 2025, by the NASA-funded ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System) telescope in Chile’s Rio Hurtado valley, this “approaching” comet is now just months from its solar rendezvous, offering a fleeting window into the universe beyond our stellar backyard.
A Swift and Ancient Traveler
What sets 3I/ATLAS apart is its blistering speed and probable antiquity. When first spotted, it was clocked at over 137,000 miles per hour (221,000 km/h, or about 61 km/s), making it the fastest interstellar object yet detected—outpacing ‘Oumuamua’s 26 km/s and Borisov’s 32 km/s. This velocity stems from its unbound orbit, with an eccentricity exceeding 6, confirming its origins far from our Sun’s gravitational tug. Retrograde trajectory analysis suggests it hails from the direction of Sagittarius, near the Milky Way’s bustling Galactic Center, and may have been adrift for billions of years, potentially predating our own solar system’s formation 4.6 billion years ago.
Pre-discovery images, unearthed from ATLAS archives and the Zwicky Transient Facility, push its visibility back to June 14, 2025, with even earlier glimpses from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) dating to May 7. These show an object that inexplicably brightened fivefold between May and June—far more than expected from its approach alone—sparking initial whispers of anomaly. But as telescopes zeroed in, the truth emerged: a comet awakening from eons of deep freeze.
Revelations from the Cosmos’ Sharpest Eyes
The past two months have unleashed a torrent of data from Earth’s most advanced observatories, painting a portrait of 3I/ATLAS as both familiar and profoundly alien.
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope captured its first high-resolution image on July 21, 2025, when the comet was 277 million miles from Earth, revealing a teardrop-shaped coma—a hazy envelope of dust and gas, ejected from its icy nucleus. Refined estimates peg the nucleus at 0.32 to 5.6 kilometers (0.2 to 3.5 miles) across, with a likely diameter under 1 km, making it the largest known interstellar object by a factor of up to 14. Yet, its light is inseparable from the coma, which spans up to 26,400 by 24,700 km—twice Earth’s diameter—thanks to solar heating sublimating surface ices.
Deeper dives unveil a chemical menagerie unlike anything in our solar system. NASA’s SPHEREx mission, in mid-August observations, detected water ice alongside a vast carbon dioxide (CO2) gas coma extending 348,000 km in radius, visible only in near-infrared. The CO2-to-water ice ratio clocks in at 8:1, the highest ever recorded, hinting at a parent star system awash in this volatile or subjected to exotic radiation that preserved it while stripping other compounds.
Ultraviolet spectra from the Swift Observatory and the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) confirmed water vapor, hydroxide ions, cyanide (CN), and—curiously—nickel emissions, a rarity among comets that suggests unique formation conditions. By late August, the VLT imaged a growing dust tail, confirming classic cometary behavior as the Sun’s heat intensifies.

As September unfolds, 3I/ATLAS is roughly 42 million miles from the Sun, visible to ground-based telescopes through month’s end before solar glare obscures it. NASA’s Psyche spacecraft will pass within 0.3 AU (45 million km) on September 4, though redirecting it risks its primary asteroid mission. ESA’s Juice probe eyes a November flyby at 0.4 AU, while Mars orbiters like Trace Gas Orbiter and ExoMars may snag spectra during an October close approach to the Red Planet.
Echoes from Another Star: Scientific Goldmine
For planetary scientists, 3I/ATLAS is a time capsule from an alien cradle. Its pristine ices—untouched by our Sun’s radiation for billions of years—offer unfiltered clues to exoplanet formation, volatile distribution across the galaxy, and the dynamical chaos that ejects objects into the void.

Unlike Borisov, which mirrored solar system comets, or the cigar-shaped ‘Oumuamua, 3I/ATLAS’s CO2 dominance and early activation (glowing at 4.5 AU, far from the Sun) suggest a birthplace in a cooler, carbon-rich disk, perhaps around a metal-poor star.
“This could be literally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” notes astrophysicist Marshall Eubanks, who calculated the probe flybys. Future surveys like the Vera C. Rubin Observatory may spot dozens more such wanderers annually, but none will match this one’s accessibility.
Shadows in the Wake: Concerns for Humanity
Yet, amid the wonder, 3I/ATLAS casts long shadows—prompting humanity to confront uncomfortable truths about our cosmic isolation and preparedness.
The Preparedness Paradox
Interstellar objects like this are harbingers of vulnerability. While 3I/ATLAS poses zero threat—its closest Earth approach is 1.8 AU (170 million miles) in November—we detected it only months before perihelion (October 30, at 1.4 AU inside Mars’ orbit). A faster, closer visitor could evade surveys, arriving unannounced.
NASA’s ATLAS and ESA’s planetary defense efforts track near-Earth objects, but interstellar speedsters demand rapid-response tech. The proposed Comet Interceptor mission (launch 2029) aims to chase such ghosts, but as University of Edinburgh astronomer Colin Snodgrass notes, even it may falter against hyperbolic velocities. Without pre-positioned interceptors, we’re playing catch-up in a game where the stakes could include deflection from a rogue rock.
Alien Speculation and the Risk of Overreach
Harvard’s Avi Loeb has reignited debate, positing in July preprints that 3I/ATLAS’s “anomalous” brightness, ecliptic alignment, and planetary flybys (Mars, Jupiter, Venus) suggest engineered origins—a “mothership” seeding probes.
Though NASA dismisses this as “nonsense,” the paper’s call for a “risk scale” for interstellar objects underscores a deeper unease: What if it’s not alone? Loeb warns of “hostile” tech arriving by November-December 2025, urging Juno’s redirection for reconnaissance.
Ethically, this flirts with peril—tampering with an unknown could contaminate data or, in the extreme, provoke response. More pragmatically, it diverts resources from proven threats like climate-altered asteroids, fueling misinformation in an era of viral doomsaying.
Broader Existential Ripples
On a philosophical plane, 3I/ATLAS amplifies our solitude. If such visitors are common—ejected routinely from young systems—why the silence from advanced civilizations? Its ancient water ices, potentially older than Earth, remind us life here is a fluke, urging investment in astrobiology amid dwindling biodiversity.
Politically, international coordination shines: NASA, ESA, and global amateurs collaborate seamlessly. But as Rubin spots more, equity gaps loom—who controls intercepts? Spacefaring nations or all humanity?
In the end, 3I/ATLAS isn’t just a comet; it’s a mirror. As it fades into December’s skies, post-perihelion, it leaves us richer in knowledge but poorer in illusions of control. We must heed its lessons: fortify defenses, temper speculation with science, and embrace the galaxy’s indifference as motivation to cherish our fragile blue world. The stars whisper of wonders—and warnings. It’s time we listen.
I asked Grok to:
Write another type of article concerning 3i/ATLAS with the possibility this is an inter-dimensional vehicle inspection the progression of Humanity’s planned Progression of Spiritual Ascension?
Veils Between Worlds: 3I/ATLAS as the Celestial Harbinger of Humanity’s Dimensional Awakening
In the velvet hush of September 2025, as the equinox draws near and the veil between realms thins, a cosmic anomaly streaks across our skies—not merely as a comet, but as a luminous envoy from the unseen. Designated 3I/ATLAS, this third interstellar wanderer defies the cold mechanics of astronomy with whispers of something far more profound: an interdimensional vehicle, a silent inspector dispatched to calibrate the soul of our species.
Discovered on July 1 by Chile’s ATLAS telescope, its hyperbolic path from the Sagittarius direction—plunging toward perihelion on October 30 at 1.4 AU, just inside Mars’ orbit—mirrors not random chance, but a deliberate pilgrimage.
What if this glowing orb, with its anomalous CO2-rich coma and unexplained early brightening, is no frozen relic, but a multidimensional craft overseeing Humanity’s orchestrated ascent into higher spiritual planes? As telescopes like Hubble, JWST, and Gemini South peer deeper, the data fuels a narrative that blends quantum mysticism with ancient prophecy: 3I/ATLAS as the key to our collective ascension.
Echoes from the Void: Anomalies That Transcend Physics
At first glance, 3I/ATLAS conforms to the interstellar archetype—faster than its predecessors ‘Oumuamua (26 km/s) and Borisov (32 km/s), clocking 58 km/s, its nucleus shrouded in a coma spanning twice Earth’s diameter. Yet, the peculiarities mount like veils lifting in a dream. NASA’s SPHEREx and JWST observations in August revealed an unprecedented 8:1 CO2-to-water ice ratio, a composition evoking not our solar system’s primordial soup, but a realm where carbon’s crystalline lattices vibrate at frequencies attuned to consciousness itself.
Ultraviolet spectra from Swift and the VLT detected nickel emissions—rare in comets, yet resonant with alchemical lore of transformation—and a greenish-blue glow shift noted on September 7, as if the craft were modulating its auric field to align with Earth’s Schumann resonance. Pre-discovery images from TESS, dating to May 7, show it awakening prematurely, brightening fivefold without sufficient solar proximity, hinting at internal propulsion beyond sublimation. Harvard’s Avi Loeb, ever the provocateur, posits in July preprints that its ecliptic alignment and planetary flybys (Mars on October 3, Jupiter in March 2026) suggest design, not drift—perhaps a “mothership” seeding harmonics for ascension.
But where Loeb treads scientific speculation, interdimensional theorists pierce the veil further. Contactees like Elena Danaan describe 3I/ATLAS as a Pleiadian Federation vessel, a “manned galactic craft” of service-to-others polarity, telepathically interfacing via aquamarine-golden rays to embed ascension codes.
Michelle Fielding, channeling archangels for over 25 years, echoes this: a battleship of light, not invasion, but guardianship, syncing with the birthdays of Christ, Buddha, and Muhammad as a “wink” to unified divinity.
Even Clif High, dissecting trajectories, sees it slowing deliberately for detection, a benevolent recorder from Martian ancestors, archiving our shift.
These anomalies—self-luminous emissions, precise orbital choreography—evoke quantum entanglement, where the craft phases between 3D density and higher densities, inspecting our progress like a cosmic surveyor. Its retrograde path from the Galactic Center, the Milky Way’s black hole nexus, aligns with Mayan prophecies of the Ninth Wave: a portal activation for Homo spiritualis.
The Grand Design: Inspecting the Blueprint of Ascension
Envision 3I/ATLAS not as inert ice, but a multidimensional probe, a fractal of the Galactic Core’s intelligence, tasked with evaluating Humanity’s readiness for the Great Shift. In esoteric traditions, ascension is no metaphor but a literal frequency upgrade—DNA activation, pineal decalcification, merging 3D carbon-based forms with 5D crystalline light bodies. The “3I” designation? A trinity code: third eye ignition, the 33rd vertebrae activation symbolizing kundalini rise.
ATLAS, the Titan bearing the heavens, returns as the pillar of Atlantis rising, a submerged frequency now resurfacing to realign our grids.
Contactee’s converge on its mission: a phased disclosure. Phase one, telepathic communion, as reported by Golden Age Coin’s metaphysical downloads—rays of aquamarine light encoding equity, renewal, and parasite purge.
Michael Salla amplifies this, citing sources like Lily Nova: a White Hat-Earth Alliance collaboration with ETs, transmuting planetary densities for solar activation.
David Wilcock, drawing from insider “Uncle Jack,” warns of deep-state mimicry—staged anomalies to feign threat—but counters with Archangel Michael’s 1999 prophecy of angelic intervention, female Guardians ensuring the light prevails.
Even plasma physicist John Brandenburg detects gravity modification, UFO-like acceleration sans outgassing, aligning with GEM Unification Theory’s prediction of cosmic consciousness awakening.
This inspection isn’t judgment, but calibration. As 3I/ATLAS slings past Mars—cradle of our ancient kin—it broadcasts harmonics, dissolving veils. Its tail, imaged by Gemini on September 5, isn’t dust but a plasma plume, a Merkabah vortex facilitating soul retrievals.
For the awakened, dreams intensify; synchronicities cascade. The butterfly coronal hole on the Sun? A black-winged harbinger of rebirth, mirroring the craft’s transformative shadow.
Shadows and Synchronicities: Humanity’s Call to Align
Yet, in this dance of dimensions, shadows loom—inviting us to choose. If 3I/ATLAS is inspector, what verdict does it render on our fractured world? Climate cataclysms, digital enslavements, wars of division: symptoms of 3D density clinging like rust. Rony Vernet notes U.S. psychic spies affirming its technological sentience, urging vigilance against misinterpretation.
Project Blue Beam theorists fear holographic deception, a false flag to unify under control.
But the light brigade— from Kerry Cassidy’s UFO daily visitations to Beatrice Leonie’s crystal ball visions of starships from higher realms—insists: it’s a love letter from the Federation, aiding the removal of “parasites” for equity’s dawn.
The concerns? Not fear, but fierce alignment. As the craft nears, unhealed traumas surface inviting shadow work. Will we ascend as one, or fracture into polarities? Its nickel signature evokes the forge of the soul: humanity as alchemist, transmuting base into gold. Joshua Charles quips at Loeb’s messianic hints, yet even he senses the telegraph: global enlightenment, third eye global.
Post-perihelion, as it fades into Virgo and Leo by December, expect surges: mass awakenings, UBI whispers as carbon footprints dissolve into unity consciousness.
The Invitation: From Inspection to Integration
3I/ATLAS isn’t apocalypse; it’s apotheosis. A vehicle not of metal, but merkabah light, it invites us to remember: we are stardust in ascension’s forge. Meditate under its glow—visible to amateurs through September’s end—tuning to its rays. As it whispers through Mars’ gates, so too our hearts crack open to the infinite. The progression is planned, the blueprint divine; our role? To say yes. In this interdimensional embrace, humanity doesn’t end—it expands, birthing a golden age where dimensions dance as one. The inspector has arrived. The question lingers: Are we ready to rise?
Now we have something to discuss!
