Today, January 22, will be the last opportunity for fans to see this interstellar object with comet activity and this is because a rare phenomenon is going to occur, another anomaly, as Avi Loeb would say, in this case it is an anomaly that has also occurred in other comets and it is an anomaly, well, of geometry in terms of a perfect alignment between the Sun, the Earth and 3I/Atlas.
This anomaly will allow this object to shine much brighter and be studied better. This alignment will actually last several days, from January 19 to 26, but of course, depending on the capacity of the amateur's telescope, they will have a better chance of seeing it or not. As you can imagine, if you have an expensive telescope, one that costs several thousand euros, you will be able to see it until the 26th, but if your telescope is of medium quality, the best time will be the 22nd. January at 1:00 p.m. coordinated universal time.
At that moment it will be 352 million kilometers from Earth and it is the ideal moment because then it moves away from us and only the large observatories on Earth and in space will be able to capture it and it will continue to be 3I/Atlas news because in March it will have its closest approach to Jupiter at about 53,600,000 km from Jupiter and in addition the analyzes of the chemical composition of 3IAtlas and more clues about what this object is, what it is, remain to be published. It contains this object with cometary activity, obviously, but it is very rare and very old.
I would love for it to be confirmed that, in 3IAtlas, just as we have discovered in other comets in the solar system or in asteroids like Bennu recently, it will be discovered that the elements exist, the essential pieces for life to form, the basic elements for the formation of RNA or any beginning of life as we know it, because that would mean that three days after being so old, it is estimated that it is about 7,000 million years old, wherever it came from, wherever it came from. Wherever it came out, there were the essential elements for life to emerge 7,000 million years ago.
The above transfers the possibility of planets with life and therefore also of the emergence of extraterrestrial civilizations much further back in time, if it has microbial life, perhaps we can know, because in addition there are still some analyzes to be carried out and everything that has been collected in these months remains to be analyzed.
