About this listen

 Tonight we explore the discovery of 3I/ATLAS, only the third interstellar object ever detected in our solar system. This ancient wanderer originated from the direction of Sagittarius, near our galaxy's heart, and has been traveling through space for potentially billions of years. With an extreme orbital eccentricity that makes its path appear almost perfectly straight, this cosmic messenger carries secrets from stellar nurseries far beyond our own. Join us as we follow its incredible journey from the depths of interstellar space to our cosmic doorstep.
