I want it to me to say, 192 00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:23.240 Armagnac one hundred and thirteen point five proof aged five 193 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.879 years is fucking delicious. Nice. I love this bottle. What 194 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:27.480 do you think? Do you like? 195 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:28.399 I love it? 196 00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:34.320 There we go, Okay, should take a break, poor a 197 00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:35.799 little bit more whiskey. You take a break and we'll 198 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.360 be back Oscar. I liked what you did last episode 199 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:43.200 with the multiple shorter stories. Oh yes, so I followed 200 00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.679 that theme. 201 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:46.039 Oh is that what people are to be expecting? 202 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:47.840 Expect some short stories tonight. 203 00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:49.720 Okay, I like it and stay with. 204 00:09:49.720 --> 00:10:13.320 Us, listeners, welcome back to the show. Well, the lights 205 00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:18.759 are turned down low, the ceremonial candle is lit, and 206 00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:24.799 the Armagnac is flowing. My god, let's start this show. So, 207 00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:27.399 like I said, I brought to the table this evening, 208 00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:32.720 three stories, three shorter stories, because I was I did 209 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.240 like that idea you came up with last last episode. 210 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:40.600 So my first story is called Strange Visitor. 211 00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:42.240 Oh you titled them? 212 00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:42.440 I did? 213 00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:43.360 You gave them titles. 214 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:49.840 Okay, across the vast ocean of the Milky Way, a 215 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.679 rare traveler has emerged from the depths of interstellar space, 216 00:10:54.639 --> 00:11:00.840 streaking through the Solar System at unimaginable speed. Comet Atlas, 217 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:05.519 a mysterious visitor that is not just another frozen relic 218 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:10.399 of space, but an interstellar enigma carrying secrets from a 219 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:16.080 time and place far beyond our own. Is not bound 220 00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:20.480 to our Sun or any star, but instead drifts on 221 00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:25.399 a timeless journey through the galaxy older than our Solar System. 222 00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:29.720 Three I Atlas carries with it the chemical fingerprints of 223 00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:35.039 distant stars, and now it graces us humanity with a 224 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.679 fleeting passage, offering a brief chance to glimpse the mysteries 225 00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:46.080 of creation itself. As it hurdles closer, glowing green and 226 00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:51.759 defying expectations, Scientists and stargazers alike are left to wonder. 227 00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:55.279 Is three Eye Atlas simply a comet from another star 228 00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:01.279 or a messenger with a purpose we've yet to understand? Now, 229 00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:03.759 ask her, have you heard of three Eye Atlas? 230 00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:09.360 No? Honestly, nah, yeah, pretty mind? Yeah, Okay, I don't 231 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:09.679 think so. 232 00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.480 And it's fine, and maybe there's you know, probably listeners 233 00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:14.159 out there who haven't as well. But this has been 234 00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:18.080 news all over the world. This this strange comment. Okay, 235 00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:22.320 and I thought about, you know, talking about it before, 236 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.039 but I just didn't have This is not enough there, 237 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:26.919 but perfect for an episode like this. Yeah, shorter stories. 238 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.879 Now comment three ie Atlas, And that's three I slash forward, 239 00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:35.360 slash a T L A S. 240 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:37.039 So is it a drawing of an eye? 241 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:43.200 No? Okay no, but it gets its name from two sources. 242 00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:44.960 Everyone's like, why is it so weird? Why is it 243 00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:48.799 such a weird name? Three I signifies that it's the 244 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:55.960 third confirmed interstellar object we've ever detected. An ATLAS refers 245 00:12:56.000 --> 00:13:03.159 to the Asteroid Terrestrial Impact Laser Alert System acronym ATLAS. Okay, 246 00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:10.919 third interstellar comment right, detected by this powerful telescope array 247 00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:15.200 called ATLAS. Now. It was first spotted on July first, 248 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:19.440 twenty twenty five, by the Atlas telescope in Chile. The 249 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:23.000 comet had in fact been silently drifting through our solar 250 00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:26.799 system for quite some time before astronomers even realized this 251 00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:31.039 thing was there, its presence hidden in older telescope images, 252 00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:36.279 just waiting to be discovered now. Unlike a simple space rock, 253 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.679 if you could call space rock simple. Three Iye Atlas 254 00:13:39.759 --> 00:13:43.320 is classified as a comet because as it approaches our Sun, 255 00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.799 it releases gas and dust that creates a glowing coma 256 00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:52.480 and a tail. What makes it especially fascinating, however, is 257 00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:56.559 that it is interstellar, meaning it came from somewhere far, 258 00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:03.120 far far beyond our soul or system, and eventually it'll 259 00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:06.559 pass us and it will continue on its journey back 260 00:14:06.679 --> 00:14:09.919 into interstellar space, never to return. 261 00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:15.200 So there's no worry about this comet being like stucked 262 00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:18.519 onto the gravity wells of some other thing in our galaxy, 263 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:21.279 in our solar system. We don't know, okay, So it's 264 00:14:21.320 --> 00:14:24.159 possible that it could stay with us. We just get 265 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:25.480 stucked up by Jupiter or something. 266 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:30.919 And that's part of the mystique of this thing, because 267 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:34.120 it hasn't happened. What you just describe has not happened. 268 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:37.679 Oh, so it will become like why hasn't happened? What 269 00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:38.600 people are asking. 270 00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:42.399 Exactly or why is it making because and I'm giving 271 00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:44.759 away a little bit more. Sorry, No, it's okay, it's okay. 272 00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:45.159 I don't know. 273 00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:46.279 That was part of the mystery. I want to have 274 00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:47.000 asked It's. 275 00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:50.440 Okay because through Atlas is making close fly by. I 276 00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:53.720 mean close. We're talking millions of miles, but by a 277 00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:58.039 number of planets. It's aligning perfectly as these planets spin 278 00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.320 to make a fly by of them, a close flyby, 279 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:04.320 and it's not being sucked in and it's not being 280 00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:05.639 pushed this way or that. 281 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:07.440 By grad Oh that sounds intentional. 282 00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.080 Oh, thank you. So that's why the people are going 283 00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:10.919 nuts over this thing. 284 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:12.159 I'm going nuts right now. 285 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:15.840 Just wait, this gets crazier. Oh so, now, in case 286 00:15:15.879 --> 00:15:18.279 you didn't know, it's been in the news and everything, 287 00:15:18.279 --> 00:15:21.039 but comment three, I at List made a close flyby 288 00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:26.320 to Mars on October third, twenty twenty five. What's cool 289 00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:28.840 about this fly by is that we have space based 290 00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:31.919 cameras at the ready, which will hopefully be able to 291 00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:36.759 take the clearest photographs ever of this mysterious object. There's 292 00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:41.480 the Mars Reconnaissance Reconnaissance Orbiter launched by NASA, and the 293 00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:46.000 Mars Express and the Exo Mars Trace Gas Orbiter. Both 294 00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:49.720 of those were launched by the European Space Agency or EESA, 295 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:54.759 and in fact, the ESA's Exo Mars Trace grap Gas 296 00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:58.399 orbiter did capture images of three i at lists on 297 00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:02.639 October third, and what's immediately striking is that there is 298 00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.879 no tail. It's a comet, there should be a tail, 299 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:11.440 but there isn't and this fact drives scientists nuts. Now, 300 00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:15.080 the ESA quietly released the photos taken by Exo Mars, 301 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:17.120 and there's a link in the show notes where you 302 00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:19.480 can see these photos in action, so you see kind 303 00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:25.159 of this thing flying, there's no tail. So Europe gave 304 00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:27.559 the world the first close up, high res images of 305 00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:30.480 three i at lists. But what about NASA. They have 306 00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:33.519 cameras up there too, like the Mars Reconnaissance orbiter. Like 307 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:36.639 I mentioned, why isn't NASA releasing any of these super 308 00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:41.399 high res photos. Well, funny story, just two days before 309 00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:43.879 three i at lists was to make its pass by Mars, 310 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:49.919 so on October first, the US government went into shutdown. Convenient, 311 00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:55.440 isn't it. Now NASA's classified as non essential, meaning they're scientists. 312 00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:57.639 They're not in the office right now, they're out of 313 00:16:57.679 --> 00:16:58.120 the office. 314 00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:01.120 Messages on you mean as it's passing by the nearest 315 00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:02.480 planet to us. 316 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:04.839 Yeah, I mean you're getting it. You're picking up what 317 00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:09.720 I'm putting out. So therefore, publicly, NASA isn't analyzing new 318 00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:13.400 data on three iatlis, and no new images are being 319 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:19.440 released by NASA. Total blackout, no updates, no statements, nothing. Now, 320 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:22.160 of course, one could argue that was almost It's almost 321 00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:25.079 as if someone wanted to make sure the public couldn't 322 00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:28.039 see what was really happening out there with three I Atlas. 323 00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:32.319 But I'm getting ahead of myself. With conspiracy theory, there's 324 00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:34.160 a lot of them. We'll get into those a bit. 325 00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:38.119 But so now, after Mars, three I Atlis will make 326 00:17:38.119 --> 00:17:42.200 its closest pass to the Sun on October thirtieth, twenty 327 00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:44.960 twenty five, so just two days before this episode's release 328 00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.960 on November one, right, and it's gonna skim just inside 329 00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:53.640 the orbit of Mars. Its nearest approach to Earth will 330 00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:58.359 come on Friday, December nineteenth, approximately twenty twenty five, when 331 00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:00.799 it passes at a staggering disc into one hundred and 332 00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.279 sixty seven million miles from our little blue rock here. Now. Unfortunately, 333 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:10.480 in a twist of cosmic irony, during this time, the 334 00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.920 comet will lie hidden on the far side of the Sun, 335 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:19.119 completely unobservable to us here on Earth. Rea And after 336 00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:22.480 that brief alignment three, Ie Atlas will slip away forever, 337 00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:27.079 racing back into the silent void of interstellar space, disappearing 338 00:18:27.079 --> 00:18:30.359 into the darkness, and human eyes will never lay eyes 339 00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:34.599 on it again. That concept of never, it's never gonna 340 00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:36.880 happen and we're never gonna see it again. It's just 341 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:39.000 it's hard to put your mind around, you know what 342 00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:39.240 I mean? 343 00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:41.880 Yeah, I mean, but you could, you could make comparison. 344 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:44.519 It's like throwing It's like throwing a pebble on the ocean. 345 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:47.039 You'll never see that pebble again, just as likely, just 346 00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:50.720 as for sure. Right, Yeah, that's that's the same. 347 00:18:50.839 --> 00:18:51.160 That's right. 348 00:18:51.200 --> 00:18:51.799 It feels like that. 349 00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:53.519 Guys, it does feel like that, and it's not a 350 00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:55.000 good feeling. I don't know why. 351 00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:57.720 Well, because you know, you and I are fascinated by this, 352 00:18:57.759 --> 00:19:00.599 and we're fascinating along with this with answers and we're 353 00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:02.319 just not going we're different, but we're not going to 354 00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:04.960 get them, and that bugs us and it makes them 355 00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:07.799 want to punch people. Yeah, I get it. 356 00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:08.720 Fucking angry. 357 00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:11.680 I have so many questions for the conspiratorial aspect of this, 358 00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:12.480 but we'll get there. 359 00:19:12.559 --> 00:19:17.000 Yeah, it gets fun. Okay, So we know where this 360 00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:20.240 comet will be on specific dates in the immediate future, 361 00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:23.880 and we know where it's heading, but tracing where three 362 00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:29.119 I Atlas originated is much more difficult. Scientists have attempted 363 00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.519 to reconstruct its path through orbital calculations all the science shit, 364 00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:37.400 but the pull of gravity from countless stars makes it 365 00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:43.400 nearly impossible to identify its exact birthplace. Some studies suggest 366 00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:45.200 that it may have come from a part of the 367 00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.319 Milky Way known as the thick Disk. This vast and 368 00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:55.000 ancient region that spans roughly four thousand to sixteen thousand 369 00:19:55.279 --> 00:20:01.240 light years in thickness. The thick disc can tins primarily 370 00:20:01.279 --> 00:20:05.960 older stars with lower metallicity than those in the thin disk, 371 00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:10.279 making it a unique stellar population. Okay, but now let 372 00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:12.160 me blow your mind a little bit here. So remember 373 00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:14.720 I said the thick disk is thought to be between 374 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:18.359 four thousand and sixteen thousand light years in thickness. 375 00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:22.480 Right, Yeah, are you're saying blowing your mind in thickness? 376 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:25.480 It's just too funny. I'm sorry, No, that's me, that's 377 00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:30.079 me being a buffoon. I'm just saying, so. 378 00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.440 Thick disk, Yeah, four thousand to sixteen thousand light years 379 00:20:33.759 --> 00:20:40.680 thick So one light year, just one is so I 380 00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:46.880 gotta take a sip for little five trillion, eight hundred 381 00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:50.480 and seventy eight billion, six hundred and twenty five million, 382 00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:54.799 three hundred and seventy five thousand miles. That's a single 383 00:20:54.880 --> 00:20:58.960 light year. Multiply that obscene number by four thousand or 384 00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:03.720 sixteen thousand, and that's the approximate thickness of the thick disk. Okay, 385 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:04.880 we're thinking. 386 00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:07.279 I'll think, so you take it. 387 00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:10.559 I just keep saying, is your mind all right? I'm 388 00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:12.960 moving on. But that's where they think this thing might 389 00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:15.319 have come from, this kind of primordial. 390 00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:20.240 Like like a top for stars. Yeah, dude, that's where 391 00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:24.960 my mind's a cosmic forest, unmanned, uncharted territory. 392 00:21:24.519 --> 00:21:28.119 Never seen by human we'll never probably see like it. 393 00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:28.880 It hurts your head. 394 00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:33.240 Yeah shit, Yeah. 395 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:36.240 So if this connection to the Milky Ways thick disc 396 00:21:36.400 --> 00:21:40.880 is correct, then three I at list could be extraordinarily old, 397 00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:46.880 possibly more than seven billion years old. Billion. Now, keep 398 00:21:46.920 --> 00:21:49.839 in mind our sun is approximately four point six billion 399 00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:53.680 years old, Earth about four point five billion years old. 400 00:21:53.839 --> 00:21:56.519 The other planets up there circling us right now, somewhere 401 00:21:56.519 --> 00:21:59.279
