Others argue it\u2019s an asteroid behaving badly. But leading theoretical physicist Avi Loeb has suggested a wilder possibility \u2014 that 3I\/ATLAS might be an alien \u201cmothership\u201d.<BR><br \/>\nUFO enthusiasts are convinced it\u2019s an extraterrestrial scout making first contact.<BR><br \/>\nMusk, who runs rocket giant SpaceX, said the truth was still unknown.<BR><br \/>\nHe told Rogan: &#8220;It may be an unusual comet or asteroid, but it could be alien &#8211; I don\u2019t know.\u201d<BR><br \/>\nAnd while experts believe it will pass no closer than 170 million miles, Musk warned that space agencies cannot afford to ignore it.<BR><br \/>\nHe said: &#8220;If it hit Earth, it would obliterate a continent. Maybe worse. Probably kill most of human life. If not all of us.\u201d<BR><br \/>\nThe object was discovered on 1 July by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System and is only the third confirmed interstellar visitor in history, after 2017\u2019s Oumuamua and 2019\u2019s Borisov.<BR><br \/>\nScientists say it may have been drifting through deep space for 10 billion years, but its behaviour has been anything but sleepy. <BR><br \/>\nWhen it swung past the Sun on October 30, telescopes spotted non-gravitational accelerations, and a mysterious radio signal was detected \u2014 sending observers into meltdown.<BR><br \/>\nProfessor Loeb said the anomalies meant he could \u201cnever fully rule out\u201d an alien craft, rating it a two on his UFO scale, meaning \u201cmeriting attention\u201d.<BR><br \/>\nFilmmaker and UFO researcher Mark Christopher Lee even believes humanity could make first contact by Christmas.<BR><br \/>\nHe said: &#8220;These are weird times. The timing of 3I\/ATLAS\u2019s flyby feels like no coincidence. We could detect signals or course changes between December 19 and 25.&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/bangbizarre.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"> Visit Bang Bizarre (main website) <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><script src=\"https:\/\/geo.dailymotion.com\/player\/xtbac.js\" data-video=\"\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2025-11-17 14:04:26 Elon Musk has claimed a mysterious object tearing through space \u201ccould be alien\u201d \u2014 and even warned it might wipe out humanity if it veers off course.
