On Monday, June 30, after defending the doctoral dissertation for Matthew Hopkins to accept a number of decent times. The universe seems to be other plans for him.
The next day, the latest warning system (atlas) of the Atlas surface (Atlas) Rio Hurtado, Chile, was found a mysterious object that was piled to the sun. Early observations, this was out of our solar system, which is outside our solar system, noted the third discovery of an anterior facility in history. Hopkins-leaps, including astronomers in the world, races to collect many information from this browsing space rock with this browsing space rock. Thursday, July 3, the small planetary center of the International Astronomical Union An intercontinental object really walked on our space neighborhoodTo be called 3i / Atlas. Now they believe that Hopkins and colleagues know where they come from.
“It’s very excited!” Hopkins, astrophysics aspirant at Oxford University Iflscience. “I expected my predictions chances to compare comparable to new information in four years, and 3i / satin already provides new information to the population of the population of this interesting galaxy.”
Through initial observations, astronomers learned a lot about 3i / atlas. So it’s still the largest and brightest stonstrard object Space. Experts are convinced that this is an incredibly high speed comet from our solar system. When discovered, the object was travel 137,000 miles per hour (221,000 kilometers per hour) and will be accelerated as the sun approaches. 3i / Atlas looks bigger than the previous two-star object: ‘Oumuamua and Comet 2i / Borisov. Early size estimates recommend This can be 6 to 19 miles (10 to 30 kilometers). Don’t worry, this space is no chance to hit our planet, but will ensure the closest approach to the ground on October 30.
Primary spectroscopy offers Located between 3i / Atlas, Jupiter and Neptune, Neptune and Neptune are similar to some trans-neptunian objects outside the orbit or small, icy celestial objects-like typical solar system societies. Another study fifty Photometric observations are similar to some solar system comets, but ‘OUMUAMUA and 2I / Borisov’s object from the object.
Together, these early findings are a bright picture of the last guest of our solar system, but to understand where this comet comes is as important as it seems. Lots of stonstrated facilities “Pritine, initial balance from the process of the planet in other planetary systems”, Physics and astronomical associate professor in Michigan State University Darryl Seligman wrote in an article Conversation. 3i / Understand the origin of the Atlas will allow you to extract information about how the planets are built in this external star system.
For this purpose, Hopkins and colleagues have analyzed 3i / atla using the Otutahi-Oxford model. This new model combines data from the European Space Agency (ESA) Gaia Observatory, the models of the protollanetaria disk and galactic dynamics of the speeds of the steep facilities in our space neighborhood. Hopkins and several authors contribution to the development of Otutahi-Oxford.
The findings available on the server prep in advance archive And still need to be reviewed, 3i / Atlas’ Suggestion of the Galactic Disc of the Atlas Suggestion. This is a part of the galaxy in the center of the stars, gas and dust and a circular coplantic movement in the center of the galaxy. According to Hopkins, 3i / Attack, probably came from the thick part of the disc contains The Samanty is about 10% of the perfect mass of the road. These stars are generally larger than those on the Galaxy’s thin disk.
“Learning chemistry and dynamics, how to understand the planeteimization and evolutionary process and how such facilities in the Straw Road disk respond to the potential of the straw road. Research situations. Planetesimalials are an asteroid or a comet-like dwarf objects serve Like the building blocks of planets.
“[Comet 3I/ATLAS] Probably from an old star on the thick disk, it is likely that this thing is likely to be there longer than the age of the solar system, “he said. [years]and would explain this color. “If confirmed, the first well-known stomach object can be visited to this different galactic population.
To try the hypothesis, the researchers will close 3i / atlas as they approach the sun. Older stars tend to produce lintott with lintott, rich in water with water. If this comet greets the thick disk, the surface should operate many cometers that occur when the ice is warmed and directly from a gas transitions. Meanwhile, astronomers in the world will continue to get acquainted with the Galaxy’s third interdal visitor.
