3I/ATLAS is leaving the Solar System. Having flown past Jupiter and now rapidly receding into deep space, the interstellar object has scientists scrambling to make final observations before it is out of reach forever. In our fourth and final video about 3I/ATLAS, we’re digging into the final images we might ever see of it, the latest discoveries from its loop around our Sun, and the mysterious explosion that could change everything we know.
