"Alternatively, the non-gravitational acceleration might be the technological signature of an internal engine. This might also explain the report on 3I/ATLAS getting bluer than the Sun. For a natural comet this blue colour is very surprising. Dust is expected to redden the scattered sunlight, and the surface of 3I/ATLAS is expected to be ~20 times colder than the 5,800 degrees Kelvin at the photosphere of the Sun, resulting in it having a redder colour than the Sun."
"Telescopes across the planet are observing 3I/Atlas and are measuring its speed and composition and the different colours that has been observed. Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb has previously stated that the comet could be an "alien mothership" and has appeared "bluer than the sun." The Harvard Professor identified eight abnormalities of 3I/Atlas and the blue hue is the ninth anomaly, he confirmed."
3I/Atlas is an interstellar object exhibiting multiple unexpected behaviors rather than typical cometary activity. The object displays non-gravitational acceleration, unusual orbital motion near the Sun, and a reported blue hue at perihelion. Dust and low surface temperatures would normally redden scattered sunlight, making the blue appearance surprising. Possible explanations include a technological internal engine or artificial light producing acceleration and blueness, or a natural origin such as ionised carbon monoxide emission. Observatories worldwide are measuring speed, composition, and color changes. 3I/Atlas will be at its closest approach to Earth on 19 December, improving observational opportunities.
