All day Astronomy @forallcurious - Is 3I/ATLAS Planning an Oberth Maneuver?
Dr. Avi Loeb believes the upcoming alignment of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS on October 21, 2025, may be more than a coincidence. As it moves directly behind the Sun, it will disappear from Earth’s telescopes just eight days before reaching its closest approach.
Loeb suggests this could be the perfect setup for an Oberth maneuver — a powerful acceleration technique used by spacecraft near massive bodies like the Sun to gain speed.
At perihelion on October 29, 3I/ATLAS will be exposed to more than 33 gigawatts of solar energy, nearly a third of the total output of all U.S. nuclear power plants. If it is an artificial craft or mothership, Loeb argues, that energy could be harnessed to power advanced systems — all while remaining hidden from our view.
If the object behaves purely according to gravity, it will confirm a natural origin. But any unexplained acceleration or change in trajectory, Loeb warns, “would signal something far more profound.”

IDF Statement:
After completing the identification process conducted by the National Center of Forensic Medicine, together with the Israel Police and the Military Rabbinate, IDF representatives informed the family of abducted Master Sergeant Tal Haimi z”l that their loved one has been returned for burial.
According to available intelligence, Tal Haimi, commander of the Nirim rapid-response unit, fell in battle defending the kibbutz on the morning of October 7th. His body was then abducted by the Hamas terrorist organization.
He was 41 years old, and his death was officially confirmed on December 13, 2023. He is survived by his wife, four children, father, and sister.
The IDF extends its deepest condolences to the Haimi family and continues every possible effort to bring back all the hostages and fallen soldiers.
Hamas is required to uphold its part of the agreement and make every effort to return the bodies of the fallen to their families for proper burial.
May his memory be a blessing.

Ambassador Warren Stephens @USAmbUK - In my first meeting with Prime Minister Starmer, we discussed how the United Kingdom could attract more foreign direct investment from the United States. My response was simple: lower your energy costs. Read my op-ed in the @Telegraph about how the UK can secure affordable, reliable energy from its own resources:
