Watch live as NASA shares new pictures of the interstellar comet that zoomed past Mars last month.
Comet 3I/ATLAS, discovered by British astronomers and most likely the oldest comet ever seen, is only the third object ever identified as entering our solar system from elsewhere in the galaxy.
The comet poses no threat to Earth and will get no closer than 170 million miles.
Today’s briefing will 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
