You’ll be shocked to know they blocked me. Cranks are all the same.

The things you think of as sinister, out of simple ignorance, are fascinating insights into how solar systems vary.

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 5h

You literally don’t understand the first thing.

Most of the things you list have been observed in other comets.

Others are flat out false.

Its reflection spectrum is completely consistent with D type asteroids and is less red than Pholus.

I’m not attacking you. I’m just pointing out you are wrong.

You haven’t presented any evidence that anything has been withheld. For all you know most mars probes didn’t try to observe 3I/ATLAS because it wasn’t possible or would risk their core mission.

You keep using terms you don’t understand. It isn’t accelerating. It has no measurable non gravitational acceleration yet. You are thinking of Oumuamua.

They haven’t been withheld. Most can’t obtain usable pictures. They are made to look down at a very bright surface of mars not up at a faint fast moving object in space. They have small apertures and short exposures.

If you don’t understand a topic don’t blindly trust ai slop to give you facts.

Who exactly are you claiming hasn’t released anything? Name names.

There is a huge amount of data freely available.

He was once a very serious scientist but something clearly has gone very wrong.

Loeb latest: “If 3I/ATLAS is a massive mothership, it will likely continue along its original gravitational path and ultimately exit the Solar system.”

Getting his excuses in early. Even if moves like a comet and leaves the solar system it’s still aliens.

If/when the next recession comes how do you think Trump by his own admission being focussed on his gold plated monstrosity vanity project will be viewed?

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 2d

You'll be shocked to know it already has a crank comment which has nothing to do with the topic.

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 2d

Just imagine how this will look if there is a recession.

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 2d

Can’t help but feel that Trump focussing on his golden monstrosity will not be a great look politically if there is a recession, or a stock market crash…

What does non-cometary motion even mean? That’s word salad.

Its “orbit” is completely described by its initial trajectory and the gravity of the Sun.

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 2d

Lol. So you have nothing. Im shocked.

I explicitly did read the peer reviewed papers, that is what the video is about. None of them describe anything that isn’t explained by this being a comet.

About.no is for sale!

You haven’t presented a single thing that defies conventional explanation…

I don’t need to present evidence that it isn’t aliens, you are the one making extraordinary claims. It is therefore you that bears the burden of proof.

It looks like a comet, it acts like a comet. It’s far more likely it’s a comet than a giant malfunctioning alien craft.

It’s a comet. It’s an icy body releasing volatile materials as it approaches the Sun and heats up.

Irritated by all the publicity hungry nonsense about 3I/ATLAS and aliens I made a video describing what we actually know about this unusual tourist from deep space and deep time that is racing through our solar system.

Spoiler: it's a comet, a cool one, but still a comet.

Just block. They’ll eventually go back to X to hang with their Nazi friends.

Mark A. Norris @markanorris.bsky.social · 7d

Just block and move on.

Let them go back to their Nazi pals on X.

Will Sam Altman and the other AI leaders be able to walk off into the sunset with their riches when the AI bubble explodes?

Or will the powerful whose wealth got vapourized find something, anything, to charge them with?

Might explain the desperate attempts to keep the bubble inflated.

We have ~5 companies spending a collective trillion plus (and having to spend hundreds of billions a year in perpetuity) in hopes of cornering what is optimistically currently a $20 billion market.

No plausible amount of growth can prevent this being a financial disaster for most involved.

Matthew Terrill @matthewterrill.bsky.social · 14d

I was already a hard AI-skeptic but this cements my long suspicion that there is no feasible path to anything close to return on invested capital for these data centers. Tech would need 15 to 25 times current AI revenues within the next 2-3 years just to break even. Not financially viable.

That is the key point. The underlying crime still exists. Trump just selectively enforces the law. He actively wants people to commit crimes, so he has leverage over them.

If so it will likely backfire. It likely won’t be the ones they expect that will fail.
