Comet leaks water like a fire hose: Experts reveal a cosmic water surprise!
A distant comet, named 3I/ATLAS, is pouring out water. Scientists compare its icy leaks to a "fire hose running at full blast." This interstellar visitor is giving us a peek into the past.
This is incredible! This comet came from another star system. It passed by Mars, and spacecraft like ESA's ExoMars and Mars Express took pictures. This event offered a rare chance to study an object not from our solar system.
New research shows 3I/ATLAS is losing water at an astonishing rate. This suggests it holds a significant amount of ice. The study is like opening a "message in a bottle" from another star.
The comet's journey and its water loss raise questions. Will 3I/ATLAS survive its trip through our solar system? Scientists continue to watch its activity closely.
