Solar Activity, SR & More Comets: 24 - 26 September 2025

Gregorio M Vigilante del Sol

A month ago, I had written (here):

We've not been getting much Earth-facing strong Solar activity for some time now but as per my earlier post, our Sun is still very active in other parts of the Solar System. I feel that 3I/Atlas will have some effect on our Sun as it approaches nearer in the days to come.

With its estimated size (still under debate with Scientists but generally agree that it's "large"), imagine the amount of Cosmic Plasma and its inherent "data" that 3I/Atlas is carrying. There's some serious upgrading happening here.

 

I was expecting 3I/Atlas to affect our Sun but instead it's the other way around!  

SpaceWeather reported on 23 September 2025 (here) that a forecast showed 3I/Atlas flying straight into a CME around 24th or 25th of September 2025:

Of course the Visitor isn't shown on the forecast ~ but I'm assuming the deduction made is that the CME is heading Mars' way and that's the time that 3I/Atlas would be approaching Mars as well, as shown below:

TheSkyLive

 

I can only imagine what effects that would produce! SpaceWeather highlighted some relevant considerations in this excerpt:

A CME IS HEADING FOR INTERSTELLAR COMET ATLAS: How often does a CME from our sun strike a comet from interstellar space? Almost never--so tomorrow’s collision is worth watching. According to a NASA forecast model, a CME launched on Sept. 19th will reach Comet 3I/ATLAS on Sept. 24th or 25th. CMEs hitting Solar System comets have been known to kink or even disconnect their tails. What happens to an interstellar comet is anyone’s guess.  

Are we getting flooded with even more Cosmic Plasma from this noteworthy encounter? 

 

And if this isn't exciting enough, we have Comet Swan and C/2025 K1(Atlas) both in the vicinity of Mars right now as well. Did they also get impacted by the same CME?

TheSkyLive

I can't be certain, but the main image at the top of this post could be the CME in question. It blasted out on 19 September 2025. 

  

During the time period of 24 - 26 September 2025, we had some SR whites:

Comet 3I/Atlas ~ 23 September 2025

Michael Jäger and Gerald Rhemann ~ COBS

Lately ~ following the initial excitement and hullabaloo ~ there seems to be woefully very little official data being published for something so unique that's having several heavy-duty telescope arrays trained upon it. The latest image we have of 3I/Atlas is thanks to amateur Astronomers Michael Jäger and Gerald Rhemann on 7 September 2025 (image above), showing that 3I/Atlas had turned emerald green ~ yet another property baffling experts in view of it lacking Dicarbon C₂.

Before that, we had the Gemini South telescope showing our visitor with a little tail on 27 August 2025 (here):

Gemini South

 

A quick check at Nasa's website shows that the latest entry for 3I/Atlas was on 25 August 2025, and even then that was about what the James Webb telescope observed on 6 August 2025 (here). 

The lack of new "official" data is conspicuous.

 

Conversely, as if to overfill the void, we have an explosion of sensational resources with attention-grabbing headlines ranging from dire-doomsday to biblical-rapture, and everything in between. This includes the alt-media and spiritual communities claiming contact with the occupants of 3I/Atlas, receiving downloads and messages from Galactic Federation, Lyrans, Jesus et al. It's all adding pandemonium to an already frazzled and fractured world.

In the midst of all that confusion, I came across a couple of videos that had good content, one from Stefan Burns and the other from Space Race.  The one from Space Race presents a collection of data from what we have so far, and is great for anyone wanting a summary. I took brief notes for first video, which I will post below. Stefan Burns goes into more detail and provides good explanations for some of the properties exhibited by 3I/Atlas. 

Stefan Burns @21 September 2025:

*Rapid brightening may possibly be emanating from nucleus instead of coma ~ graph below shows exponential rise

 

*3 October Flyby Mars 0.25 AU

*21 October Superior Conjunction (Earth / Sun / Atlas in straight line, Atlas hidden from view behind Sun)

*31 October Perihelion 

*Highlights anomalous green colour in absence of abundance of C₂

*Explains how and why Comet tails are always pointing away from Sun, even after Perihelion ~ this in reference to 3I/Atlas' anti-tail

*He thinks it's bringing in energies of Consciousness

*He mentions not placing definitions on 3I/Atlas because we don't know what it is ~ this was something I mentioned earlier when I said we shouldn't try to shoehorn 3I/Atlas into known parameters (here)

*Stefan has also pointed out that with so much Plasma being emitted by this as well as other Comets present, this will only increase Solar activity as our Sun interacts with them. I can't remember for sure, but I think he could have brought this up in another one of his videos which I watched. This is why I always wonder about the "payload" factor whenever a Comet or Visitor comes into our Solar System, especially one as intriguing as 3I/Atlas. It's my belief that some, if not most or all, will deliver some sort of....stuff. I have also given my opinion about this in an earlier post about Cosmic Plasma being delivered and its interaction with our Sun (here).

 

Namaste! 💗

Comet SWAN25B: Discovered 11 September 2025 by Vladimir Bezugly

SpaceWeather: Gerald Rhemann and Michael Jäger

Peek-a-boo! Well, hi there Comet SWAN25B 👋🏽 

This Comet was spotted on 11 September 2025, seemingly appearing suddenly from behind our Sun. It is believed to have already passed its perihelion and is expected to approach Earth in October although no details are available yet as to its trajectory.

The following sites have more details:

For some reason, the "sudden appearance" of this Comet makes me think of Mr Bean (video here)....

Comet 3I/Atlas: Still Unnamed & Other Musings

The Sky Live

The first Interstellar Object (ISO) was christened Oumuamua; the second one, Borisov. 

Since its official discovery on 1 July 2025, a good two months have already passed but this latest ISO has yet to be given a name apart from its scientific designation. This visitor has attracted so much attention because of its peculiar properties and yet it remains nameless.

Why is this so? It would be nice if someone studying this ISO volunteers a name.

Although there is still no agreement in the Scientific community about its size, there appears to be an eager attempt to drastically downplay its initial estimations ~ from a diameter of 20km (12 miles) to just a few hundred metres, although 5.6km seems to be quoted often. I've even seen Nasa reporting its estimated size by using radius instead of diameter.

I am not at all an expert on Comets and their related scientific properties, but it's obvious that 3I/Atlas' "bizarre" (they've used this term) makeup and behaviour are confusing the experts so they are trying to shoehorn this visitor into known parameter boxes.

And finally, I can't help but wonder what would happen if this visitor starts to steer away from its projected trajectory....

Namarie! 💛 

Comet 3I/Atlas' Trajectory Animation....& More

The Sky Live

 

I've lost count how many times I watched this animation 😄 Why didn't I find this earlier? I've converted it into a gif for reference, but please visit The Sky Live where you'll be able to set the dates as well as pause and play, and of course, read the article.

Look at how close it gets to Mars and Jupiter, its trajectory seemingly predetermined. There's also a link in the article to the 3D animation here.  It's mind-boggling to see that 3I/Atlas is basically traversing the Solar System almost on the ecliptic plane along with the other Planets, even though it's not gravitationally bound to our Sun, plus the fact that our Sun is at the same time moving through Space.

We've not been getting much Earth-facing strong Solar activity for some time now but as per my earlier post, our Sun is still very active in other parts of the Solar System. I feel that 3I/Atlas will have some effect on our Sun as it approaches nearer in the days to come.

With its estimated size (still under debate with Scientists but generally agree that it's "large"), imagine the amount of Cosmic Plasma and its inherent "data" that 3I/Atlas is carrying. There's some serious upgrading happening here.

Having said all that, I will end by stating that of course, this is all my opinion only.

Namarie! 🤍 

Comet 3I/Atlas Update: 21 August 2025

SpaceWeather

 SpaceWeather has an interesting update on Comet 3I/Atlas:

The tail of 3I/ATLAS points almost straight toward the sun. Normally, comet dust tails are pushed away from the sun by radiation pressure. 3I/ATLAS is doing the opposite—it's backwards. 

Please read the rest of the report here.

 

There's also an article suggesting that 3I/Atlas is producing its own light, as per the very same Avi Loeb:

In the blog post, Loeb looks to the recent Hubble Space Telescope image of 3I/ATLAS.

"The image shows a glow of light, likely from a coma, ahead of the motion of 3I/ATLAS towards the Sun. There is no evidence for a bright cometary tail in the opposite direction," he writes.

"This glow was interpreted as evaporation of dust from the Sun-facing side of 3I/ATLAS."

After analysis of the light emitted by 3I/ATLAS, as described in a science paper published on 20 August 2025, Loeb then writes:

"The simplest interpretation is that the nucleus of 3I/ATLAS produces most of the light."

It's been a while since I checked in on the news to see if there was any update about Comet 3I/Atlas ~ that was what I was thinking last night as I was finishing up my post. It was already very late so I told myself I would do that the next day, and that's today.

In a happy act of Synchronicity, SpaceWeather.com had an update about 3I/Atlas! I had to nudge my lower jaw back into place when I read the article they had featured ~ after the massive fightback by "experts" to "debunk" speculations about Oumuamua (that it's an extra-terrestrial craft or device from an advanced civilisation) I did not expect SpaceWeather to be (albeit guardedly) featuring research that suggests 3I/Atlas has intelligent design and purpose instead of being a mere Comet, interstellar or otherwise.

Please read SpaceWeather's summary of Avi Loeb & Colleagues' research here:

https://spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=22&month=07&year=2025

This is the same Avi Loeb who also said Oumuamua wasn't a comet ~ most of his fellow Scientists did not agree and proceeded to thoroughly debunk his theories.

I am far from an expert on such matters, but simple logic suggests to me that a "comet" of this size (24 km) and zipping across Space at over 60km/sec (216,000km/hr) may be on some sort of important mission. When it comes to Comets, I always ask about its payload. Of course I would also like to know who sent them 😁

Its trajectory looks like an intentional avoidance of colliding with Mars:

https://science.nasa.gov/solar-system/comets/3i-atlas/

 

Recent research also implied that this is the oldest Comet we've seen:

Let's keep track. Namarie! 💜

P/S. I referred to this in my previous post about 3I/Atlas and I'll bring it up again here ~ Strange New Worlds: Children of the Comet. Brilliant story.

Comet 3I/ATLAS ~ Our Third Interstellar Visitor

SpaceWeather

An approaching object that was just discovered on 1 June has now been identified as an interstellar comet. Named Comet 3I/Atlas (3I for "third interstellar"), research revealed that this object first appeared in telescope observations in mid-June but went unnoticed then.

The mysterious Oumuamua was "officially" our first interstellar visitor with Borisov being the second. Initial estimates place the size of this Comet 3I/Atlas at about 20km (!) and travelling at a high speed of 68 km/second. As I was reading some of the reports of this new Comet, I can't believe that it's been 8 years since Oumuamua's visit (2017) ~ it seems like just a couple of years ago.

The first two interstellar Comets measured only 0.5 and 1km respectively (reports vary), so the mind boggles with this one being 20km! Perihelion is at end-October, when it comes close to Mars:

Space.com

I still can't understand how it is that Oumuamua was (officially) our first interstellar visitor. Were there others that we haven't been told about? Or is it because the technology wasn't able to differentiate local Comets from interstellar ones? 

If there weren't any interstellar visitors in all the years prior to 2017, why are we now getting three in 8 years? (Again, I highlight the size of this one....20km.)

And of course, my usual question when it comes to Comets ~ especially interstellar ones ~ what is the payload?

For more details, here are some links:

As a side note ~ and I kid you not ~ I just re-watched an episode of Strange New Worlds yesterday (prepping for Season 3 in a couple of weeks) titled "Children of the Comet". Then I read about 3I/Atlas earlier today....

Another Comet: Sungrazer A11bP7I

Source: Space.com

There’s a brand new comet in the sky! No, not Comet C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. And like the incredibly bright Comet Ikeya–Seki (above) in 1965, the new one is what’s called a sungrazer comet. How bright will it get?

It's all happening! October is looking like a very "celestial" month indeed.

This one hasn't been named yet as it was just discovered on 27 September 2024. We should be getting some interesting footage of this Sungrazer when it orbits around our Sun.

It is expected to be so bright that we could even see it in daylight! There's more information about this Sungrazer at Universe Magazine:

https://universemagazine.com/en/the-second-october-comet/

Whenever a comet visits our skies, I often wonder what payload they carry....

Called "Comet of the Year" (some say century), C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is currently putting on a dazzling display for Skywatchers. Please head to StarWalk for the report. LiveScience also has a good write-up about this Comet.

At the same time, also from LiveScience:

On Sunday, Sept. 29, Earth captured a new "minimoon" called 2024 PT5. The bus-size asteroid is expected to orbit our planet for 57 days, but is too small to be visible to amateur skywatchers.

I don't really know what these celestial events mean in terms of Cosmic purpose, but it's long been my belief that they are not totally random occurrences devoid of any meaning, especially during our current Ascension Timeline. Am I reading too much into this? Perhaps 😄....

3 Comets & 3 Norths

Ordnance Survey

There's so much going on this month, both energetically as well as in the physical realm. I meant to post this earlier but just couldn't get to it until now. 

So, apart from the crowded happenings earlier in November, we also had two other events going on, the first of which is the first-in-history (at least in publicly-known history) where true North, magnetic North and grid North aligned together at a single point in Great Britain. Here for more details.

This is especially interesting and brings up so many questions, and I have none of the answers. Seeing as Earth Mum is in the gradual process of righting her tilted axis, this alignment makes it all the more intriguing and is no doubt having an even more intense effect on the weakening magnetosphere, which is not organic to our Planet.

And then we have these three comets in just 4 days! When I was reading about, it just seemed so obvious that something Cosmic was unfolding according to some plan. Again, I know nothing of this plan 😄 but I'm quite sure that it's integral to the Ascension phase we are in.

Solar Observer has an image of the latest one as it makes its way Sun-ward:

And here's the video.

I don't have an image of the 2nd comet, but here's one of the 3rd comet:
