NASA finds new interstellar comet passing through solar system
NASA has discovered a new interstellar comet that's currently located about 420 million miles away from Earth. The space agency spotted the quick-moving object with the Atlas telescope in Chile on Tuesday and confirmed it was a comet from another star system. The new interstellar comet's official name is 3I/ATLAS.
Scientists now say an interstellar comet discovered earlier this month could be one of the oldest that astronomers have ever encountered.
