Are we being visited by an alien spacecraft:

A Recap of the Anomalies of 3I/ATLAS on the Day of Its Closest Approach to Mars

Do they just want To Serve Man?

There are times I have wondered if aliens did come to Earth and set up people to screw things up so we'd all die off and they could take over the planet. Started writing a novel on this, too.

So maybe the aliens thought their work would be done and this is the alien ark, full of aliens.

ICE will have a big job deporting them. Maybe Elon Musk can help.

Anti-Israel protests today

Of course! Because it’s perfectly normal to hold a march that basically celebrates a massacre in which among other things young women were gang raped and then tortured to death. It’s called #SocialJustice, or sonething.

It's coming to take me away!

First we've catalogued 3 interstellar objects so everything we know is based on a very limited data set.

1) Size define a normal sizes for one of these.... we don't know.

2) Comets often have a head jet. Sun warmed side of the object release gas toward the sun. Not exactly novel.

3) It's not a solar system comet, so it's composition can be quite different. Not exactly surprising.

4) 2nd ever polarization study of an interstellar object. A data set of two and they are claiming "unusual". They are letting their imaginations get carried away.

5) Sol system centric, again a data set so small as to be useless. Give the number of systems in the galaxy these could come from anywhere. Yes there is probabilistic trends like from the galactic plane and ahead we could calculate. Talk to me when we've catalogued a few thousand of these.

6) Optimized for approach to Mars.... stop anthropomorphizing the thing.

7) A recent paper put forward the best explain for the WOW signal, natural in origin. At 0.6% from the signal it that could be up to 30 light years from the source. Meaningless.

Yes not only do they have a book, "To Serve Man" They think we have a "smalll talent for war".

What makes the comet so strange is that there are several low-probability traits. Probabilities multiply as fractions, so if you have 3 10% probabilities, you get 1/103 or a .001 for 0.1%

Each item alone can be a coiincidence, but when you have several, it might not really be random.

True. But again we are dealing with so many unknowns. We are basing the probabilities on "local" knowledge and extremely limited sample sizes. I just can't make such a leap.

In #10 JCM said: We are basing the probabilities on "local" knowledge and extremely limited sample sizes

Orbits are constrained by physics; the sample size is not really relevant. The probabilities can be estimated given suspected sources. Coming in close to the ecliptic, which is quite different from the plane of the galaxy, contrains the source and trajectories that are possible. Timing to get close flybys of two planets also means a limited set of all the probable orbits.
