Latest Comet 3I Atlas Anomolies Like the Impossible 600,000 Mile Long Sunward Tail

There are more major observed anomalies that cannot be explained and break known standard comet physics. It has unusually collimated (Laser-Like) tails. It has two distinct, extremely narrow tails. The tail going towards the Sun is tough to explain. It is about ~600,000 miles long. This is almost three times the distance from the Earth to the moon. There is a normal tail (away from Sun that is ~3 million miles long (5× longer than the sunward tail).

Tails remain tightly focused over millions of miles instead of diffusing (spreading out) like typical comets.

Multiple independent amateur and professional observations confirm these are real features.

Impossible Anti-Solar Tail

Material in the toward-Sun tail must fight directly against solar wind and radiation pressure. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb calculated the density in the anti-tail would need to be ~1 million time denser than the solar wind itself. This is far beyond normal comet outgassing.

Stable Asymmetric Jet Structure Has Remained Constant for Weeks

The 5:1 tail length ratio has remained constant for weeks.

No wild fluctuations typical of rotating comets exposing different ice pockets.

Mechanism producing jets is remarkably steady over hundreds of millions of miles.

Mass Loss Far Too High for Distance and Surface Area

At 1.8–2 AU, solar energy is only ~300 W/m².

To explain observed mass loss via normal CO? ice sublimation would require ~620 square miles of actively sublimating surface at maximum efficiency.
