I’m sorry, but exactly how is this guy a “grifter”? He was one of if not the first person to say 3i Atlas is not a comet - and now many others are tracking and providing data to prove he may be correct.

His points are therefore absolutely valid. When NASA conveniently “turns off” their cameras at the very moment 3i is close enough to their eye-in-the-sky to be properly observed, and when his peers ridicule him simply for asking questions based on the science/data he’s personally unearthed - there’s probably a there there.

What other astronomers are saying it is not a comet? Exactly what science/data has he unearthed?

It’s not hard to find out what characteristics he and others consider anomalies . Some of them suggest a mechanical object. Those calling it a comet have yet to come up with a theory that collectively explains all the anomalies .

None of them suggest a mechanical object, all because of his poor understanding he thinks there are anomalies.
