3I/ATLAS UPDATE

Hey space fam! Just checked the latest on 3I/ATLAS (C/2025 N1) – this interstellar comet is putting on a show! Recent Gemini South snaps show a stunning 56,000 km anti-solar tail and fan-shaped dust plume, while JWST reveals a wild CO₂-heavy coma (95% CO₂, just 5% water ice) with nickel vapor but no iron. Natural extrasolar weirdness, or...? No threat to Earth (closest Dec 19 at 1.8 AU), but Mars gets a close flyby Oct 3. Perihelion Oct 29 – grab your scopes before it dips behind the Sun!
