Breakthrough Listen Searches Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS for Alien Signals
Breakthrough Listen recently conducted a search for technosignatures from interstellar object 3I/ATLAS during its closest approach to Earth on December 19, 2025. Using the Green Bank Telescope, no credible signs of artificial radio signals were detected, confirming its natural cometary behavior. This marks the third interstellar object observed traversing our solar system.
