The Why Files: Operation Podcast

without a tail, without any gas around it, a dark comet.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

This is a comet where you don't see evidence for a tail.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

A comet that doesn't look or act like a comet.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

Exactly.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast

So I say, I'm just like the kid in Hans Christian Andersen's tale who says, look, I don't see any clothes on this emperor.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

And the adults in the room are telling the kid, of course, the emperor has clothes.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

They are just invisible.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

Yep.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

So I'm happy to be regarded as a kid that tells the truth, or at least what appears to be the truth based on the evidence.

So are you still convinced Oumuamua was artificial?

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

I think it's quite possible that it's space trash.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

Space trash.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

Because, and I'll tell you why, there should have been, given that Oumuamua is 20 times smaller in length than three-eye atlas,

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

That means that it's mass.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

is 20 cubed times smaller.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

And we're talking about maybe 10,000 times smaller than 3-Eye Atlas.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

So that means that there should be of all the 10,000 Oumuamuas for any 3-Eye Atlas that you observe.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

And the size of 3-Eye Atlas is now based on the latest Hubble Space Telescope data.

The Why Files: Operation Podcast
637: Basement #008: Avi Loeb | 3I Atlas, Alien Craft, and Suppressed Research

So we haven't seen 10,000 Oumuamuas

When you look at rocks, there is roughly an equal amount of mass per logarithmic mass interval of a rock in space.
