Mysterious Object Screaming Toward Mars Is Huge and Far More Massive Than Scientists Thought, According to New Paper

By analyzing its trajectory, Loeb and his colleagues found that its "non-gravitational acceleration" was "smaller than 49 feet per day, squared," in a recent blog post. We also know how much mass it was shedding in the form of gases and dust particles. From this data, Loeb inferred that the "mass of 3I/ATLAS must be bigger than 33 billion tons."
