NASA to Share Comet 3I/ATLAS Images From Spacecraft, Telescopes - NASA <
https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-to-share-comet-3i-atlas-images-from-spacecraft-telescopes/>
NASA will host a live event at 3 p.m. EST, Wednesday, Nov. 19, to share imagery of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS collected by a number of the agencyrCOs missions. The event will take place at NASArCOs Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Comet 3I/ATLAS, discovered by the NASA-funded ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System) observatory on July 1, is only the
third object ever identified as entering our solar system from elsewhere
in the galaxy. While it poses no threat to Earth and will get no closer
than 170 million miles to Earth, the comet flew within 19 million miles
of Mars in early October.
The event will air on NASA+, the NASA app, the agencyrCOs website and
YouTube channel, and Amazon Prime.
Briefing participants include:
* NASA Associate Administrator Amit Kshatriya
* Nicky Fox, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate
* Shawn Domagal-Goldman, acting director, Astrophysics Division
* Tom Statler, lead scientist for solar system small bodies
