Astronomers are investigating a mysterious object, A11pl3Z, believed to be the third interstellar object passing through our solar system, offering a rare opportunity to study material from outside our solar neighborhood, with further observations expected from advanced telescopes.
Astronomers have discovered a potential interstellar visitor, dubbed A11pl3Z, approaching the solar system at high speed, likely originating from outside our solar neighborhood. The object, possibly a large asteroid or comet, is on a trajectory that suggests it will pass through our solar system without posing any risk to Earth, with closest approaches expected in October and December. Scientists plan to study it further using advanced telescopes and possibly Mars rovers to learn more about its nature and origin.
Astronomers have discovered a new interstellar object, designated A11pl3Z, with an extremely high eccentricity orbit, indicating it originated from outside our solar system. It is currently inbound, passing near Jupiter and approaching perihelion in October 2025, and may be an asteroid about 20 km in size. This discovery adds to the growing evidence that interstellar objects are more common than previously thought.
Astronomers have potentially discovered the third interstellar object, named A11pl3Z, approaching the Solar System with a hyperbolic trajectory, indicating it originated outside our solar system, and it will pass inside the orbits of Jupiter and Mars this October.
A11pl3Z, the third known interstellar object, was discovered on July 1, 2025, and will be observed live online by the Virtual Telescope Project on July 3, 2025, offering a rare opportunity to view this celestial visitor from home.
A new interstellar object candidate, A11pl3Z, is approaching the sun and may have originated outside our solar system, with its closest approach expected in October 2025, adding a potential third interstellar visitor to our observations.
