In a long line, it's become a long line now of fights between not traditional style boxers and other boxers.

It's just the business.

It's not the boxing apocalypse, people.

A mysterious object from outside our solar system is heading towards its closest point to Earth.

Known as Comet 3I Atlas, it's travelling at more than 200,000 kilometres per hour.

Dr Jennifer Millard is an astronomer and presenter of the Awesome Astronomy podcast.

It is exactly its closest approach to Earth today, so not too close.

We don't have to worry about it hitting us.

It's going to be a little under two times the distance between the Earth and the Sun, but it is as close as it's going to get to our planet.

Everyone's been studying it with telescopes on the ground, in space, even orbiters.

And we've seen the Mars rovers onto it.

We've discovered metals, carbon monoxide, other strange chemicals.

We've seen tails develop in slightly unusual motion as it's near the sun.

It's been a wonderful, wonderful study for astronomy.

So are you with the internet consensus that this is an alien spaceship, or are you with some of those scientists who've been suggesting it's just a comet?

I am on the side of the comet, 100%.

And that is because although we have detected some unusual signatures, nothing is completely unexplainable.

So if we really did think that it had a chance of being an alien spacecraft, astronomers would be jumping for joy.

It is one of the biggest questions at the minute facing astronomy.
