Speaker 1 (00:00):
Japan just detected X rays coming from three I analysts.
This has never happened with any interstellar object before. Meanwhile,
space agencies across the globe have been running quiet defense drills.
As always, I'm here to report the information without bias
and you can decide what to believe. You can find
the sources of my detailed articles at ufonews dot Co

(00:20):
along in the description box below.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Hey you follow yours. I'm Christinea Gomez and welcome to.

Speaker 1 (00:25):
This episode of UFO News Updates. We are eight days
out from Three Eye Atlas' closest approach to Earth. But
first we must talk about what.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Has been happening behind the scenes.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Over the past few weeks. Multiple countries have been conducting
coordinated space defense exercises and the timing has been very interesting,
to say the least. The European Space Agency launched a
three day simulation activating their full planetary defense set up,
and this brought together rapid response teams, mission control hubs

(00:58):
and ground based monitoring netws works for a system usually
kept on standby. This was an unusually comprehensive task. Japan
followed with its own impact scenario drill involving civilian authorities,
defense units, and private satellite operators. Then the United States
Space Force moved forward a major tracking rehearsal that was

(01:20):
originally scheduled for late twenty twenty six. They pushed it
up over a year. Australia, South Korea, and Brazil have
also reported joining the exercise program, sharing data across newly
activated monitoring systems. The International Asteroid Warning Network also updated
its protocols. They now allowed temporary use of classified monitoring

(01:44):
data for objects labeled as non standard hyperbolic bodies. To
be clear, there is no suggestion that three I atlases.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
On a collision course with Earth.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Officials maintain there is no immediate threats, but the scale
and synchronization of this activity suggests governments are treating this
anomally very seriously, using it as an unexpected stress test
for planetary monitoring systems. Av Lowe spoke with Chris Cuomo
this week about why they need to approach these findings

(02:15):
with an open mind.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
Take a listt The foundation of science is the humility
to learn, not the arrogance of expertise, and I see
science as the privilege of maintaining your childhood curiosity. I
haven't changed much since the time I was a kid,
and my colleagues are making two mistakes. One they lecture

(02:39):
to the public what the public should know. And that's
why the public sees science as an occupation of the elite,
because it feels like a teacher in a classroom telling
the students what they need to know. And you know,
very often that teacher doesn't know what they're speaking about,
you know, like things that were declared by science one
way and the being a different way. So the mistake

(03:03):
that my colleagues are making is they pretend to know
the answer. They pretend to know that this is a comment,
and they tell the public that it includes the NASA administrator,
the acting administrator, Sean Duffy. It includes an influencer or
commentator named Brian Cox in the UK telling it's a
comment definitely coined. None of these people is doing any

(03:25):
scientific research. They haven't written a single scientific paper, they
haven't looked at the evidence, they haven't analyzed it. They
just say what they think it is. And that's a
big mistake.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
The takeaway here, and something we can all apply in
our daily lives, is to stay open minded, stay curious,
and you always ask questions. Children are naturally filled with curiosity,
but somehow along the way in adulthood that fades. Science
at its best brings that curiosity back.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
At least they should.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
And speaking about science, Jackson, the Japanese Space Agency just
release data from their x RIHYSM satellites. They observed three
eye at lits from November twenty sixth through the twenty eighth,
for a total of seventeen hours. The result is the
first X ray detection ever recorded from an interstellar object.
They found a faint X ray glow. The spectrum shows

(04:18):
excess emissions of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen beyond background levels.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
We've known since nineteen ninety.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Six that solar wind charge exchange can produce X ray
emissions from the Sun's particles that interact with the comets
gas cloud, but neither a Muamua nor borisoff were ever
detected in X rays. This is a first for interstellar objects.
The x RIYSM team published their initial find things on
December third through the Astronomer's Telegram, and other research groups

(04:50):
are already planning follow up observations. Now here's where things
get really interesting. You've seen the images that sunward facing
anti tail that shouldn't exist. Based on standard common models,
solar radiation and winds should push material away from the Sun,
not toward it. The latest hub the latest Hubble image
of November thirtieth shows this feature extending about sixty thousand kilometers.

(05:15):
But here is the new development. Doctor Sebastian Voltmer captured
fresh images on December first from Utah. The main anti
sun tail is fading. The overall brightness is dropping as
expected now that three atlas is moving away from perihelium,
but that sunworre jet is doing the opposite. It's getting

(05:36):
larger and it's getting brighter. Lobe explained to Cuomo why
even low probability possibilities deserve serious attention, and it gets
pretty passionate on the issue.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
Even if we assign a small probability that it might
be a technological gudget, the implications are eugen Therefore we
must take it seriously. You know, the intelligence agency's governments
know that when there is a risk of a terrorist attack,
you might say, oh, the probability is just one percent,
we don't need to watch. So scientists would say ninety
nine percent. I'm confident that it will not happen. Therefore,

(06:10):
I will dismiss and ridicule any discussion about the one
percent probability that it's something else. However, we know from
very respect for public servants that this is not the
right approach. What you need to do because of the
large implications. You have to take it seriously, and there
is a lot of money in the intelligence agencies dealing
with black swan events. These are events that have low probability,

(06:34):
but you must consider them seriously because of the implications.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
This brings us to one of lobe's most recent proposals
that may explain why governments are paying close attention. Rather
than one single interstellar body moving through space, LOBE suggests
there may be several smaller companions moving alongside it, a
sorm of objects sitting slightly closer to the Sun and

(06:58):
trailing tens of thous of kilometers behind the main body.
If such a swarm exists, it would fundamentally change how
space agencies interpret and track the phenomenon. Monitoring one object
is challenging enough, tracking multiple independent moving bodies would require
faster sensor systems, wider satellite coverage, and a more agile

(07:23):
response strategy. LOPE has been pushing four more data that
has been collected from government sources.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
If they have any data that they cannot understand that
they know is not related to adversarial nations, okay, because
they're seeing, witnessing some performance of objects that you know
cannot be mimicked by the technologies we possess, then they
should let scientists like myself help them, because it's not
their jurisdiction to figure out what lies outside the sources.

(07:55):
So I would very much hope that if they have
anything like that, they would share it with me. They
haven't done so, and as a result, I define my
own research projects.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Given the recent coordination between space agencies and the sharing
of classified monitoring data, it shows governments may be starting
to move in that direction. But here is the part
that deserves much more attention. Between March and April of
twenty twenty six, Earth were orbit through the region of
space where three I atlas was during Perry hillion, But

(08:27):
that material those jets were pumping out is now drifting
along the object's path. Whether any events will interact with
Earth is unknown, but scientists will be watching that window
very closely. The beautiful thing is that this is science
happening in real time. We don't have all the answers.
New data is coming in daily and our understanding keeps evolving.

(08:50):
We're not reading about something that happened years ago. You
are watching it unfold right now, alongside researchers and astronomers.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Around the entire world.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
An object from another star system is passing through and
we actually get to observe it. Is not exciting in itself.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
What are you watching for?

Speaker 1 (09:09):
As we approach December nineteenth, when three I atlas will
be closest to Earth.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Leave your thoughts in the comments.
