On July 1, 2025, a mysterious object was detected within our solar system. Soon afterward, it was confirmed by NASA as the third known interstellar object ever observed by astronomers, and given a formal name: 3I/ATLAS. Since that time, the object's unusual trajectory, massive size, and anomalous behavior have captured the fascination of the scientific community, leading to questions about whether it is indeed simply an interstellar comet bearing unusual traits or whether it could be something more complex.  This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we delve into the curious story behind 3I/ATLAS and look at what we know about the object, as well as why several experts have advanced theories involving extraterrestrial technologies in relation to the mysterious interstellar visitor coursing through our solar system.  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting?

HEADLINE: Solving the Mystery of Bright Red Dots in the Early Universe GUEST NAME: Dr. Joel LejaSUMMARY: John Batchelor interviews Dr. Joel Leja about "little red dots"—extremely bright, mysteriously common objects discovered in the early universe by the James Webb Space Telescope. These enigmatic red dots appear to be early supermassive black holes, possibly tens of millions of solar masses, revealed by intensely hot gas swirling at tremendous velocities around them. Their unexpected abundance and size so close to the universe's beginning poses a fundamental challenge to current theories of cosmic evolution and black hole formation. The discovery suggests that supermassive black holes formed much earlier and more rapidly than previously thought possible, requiring astronomers to reconsider models of how the first galaxies and their central black holes emerged from the primordial darkness. Dr. Leja explains that while the JWST data strongly indicates these are black holes based on spectroscopic signatures, the mechanism that allowed such massive objects to form so quickly after the Big Bang remains one of astronomy's most perplexing new mysteries. The research highlights how advanced telescopes continue to overturn established assumptions about the early universe's structure and evolution.

This time we return to a series we began in 2015, and continued in 2020 and 2021. Yes, spacefans, it's another transmission in our seminal electronic music series—"COSMIC ELECTRONIC 4." It's seminal because we've been obsessed with the genre since 1973, but didn't get around to naming a program after it ‘til decades later. As I said then, “The analog synthesizer allowed musicians to design entirely new sounds and created a new kind of spatial imagery that evoked the vastness of cosmic space. It could be cold and dark, warm and romantic, dramatic or contemplative—and it came to be called "spacemusic." On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a deep space journey to newly discovered star fields, thanks to the awesome JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE — on a program called "COSMIC ELECTRONIC 4." Music is by MARTIN STÜRTZER, STARTERRA, DREAMSTATE LOGIC, JIM OTTAWAY, COUSIN SILAS & MICHAEL BRÜCKNER, KEVIN BRAHENY FORTUNE, and KLAUS SCHULZE.

“I welcome every noise around me. No matter what it is: a duck, a fish, a deer farting. [...] You invite it all. And [...] this is [...] when you realize [that] every inch of this planet is occupied and we are sharing and coexisting with other species - [so] how can you ever be alone?” In this edition of Earth.fm podcast Wind Is the Original Radio, curator Melissa Pons speaks to Serge Bulat, a multidisciplinary artist whose work - which spans and hybridizes music, exhibitions, immersive games, radio, field recording, and psychological installations - explores the edges of performance, sound, perception, and identity. Serge is from a Moldovan town divided from Ukraine by a river, with family hailing from both worlds. For this reason, borders are “a prominent subject in [his] work”, which seeks to question topics around unity, differences and similarities, and the utopian aspiration of finding “ways to live in a borderless world”. Earlier this year, he released Phonomundi: Selected Recordings of Heritage Sites and Traditions 2017-2024, an album which draws upon years of recording, sharing, and contributing to projects, causes, and stories close to his heart. Phonomundi is also about engaging with “our absolutely disastrous path away from respecting our ears and respecting our culture and respecting our environment”. Against a backdrop of woozy compositions by Serge, featuring nature soundscape recordings, he and Melissa discuss the trials of having a “noisy” mind, which feels like “war in your head” and means that “it's hard to stop the thinking process” - but which can also lead recordists to “forget about [them]self and [...] start thinking about communities, people that are affected, and [how] that [can be] such an ego drop”. Serge also talks about how ‘now' is illusory, and his “weird relationship with time”: “I guess it might be some form of synesthesia, because I feel time; I feel its thickness and I feel its qualities.” The flow of time is “one of the driving forces behind [him] doing what [he's] doing”, while field recording can provide “the nowest now that there can ever be”. He describes how, after experiencing difficulties with conventional mediation, he managed to develop his own system of meditation around listening, where “time stops [...] [and] you find that serenity and that absolute calmness and, for me, this is when I stop the noise”. As he says, “We're all pieces of [...] a bigger body and we're [...] made of the same substance. [...] I always struggle to put anything like that in words [...]. It's easier for me to put it in music. [...] This is what music and sound does [...] and words don't.” Together, Serge and Melissa also address topics including: The relevance of creative work in the face of the climate catastrophe and alarming political developments across the world - including how music, as a precursor to language, can be “a shortcut [...] to somebody's mind, heart and soul”. While also acknowledging the necessity of “dig[ging] deeper [to] understand the issues [with which] we're living” Wanting to make work of significance despite “sonic pollution, [...] over-tourism, over-consumerism, weird politics that make zero sense when it comes to preserving [...] or nurturing stuff that matters and makes us us” - and especially in light of the fact that everything we know is at risk of “disappearing just by [the] pressing [of] one button” Learning to love silence. As Serge says, “We need to reset our hearing. [...] I feel like [silence] makes the ear function better” How it is possible to “feel and hear” bees' moods from the frequencies of their buzzing, and how bee therapy (‘apitherapy') - known since the time of Ancient Egypt - can improve anxiety, depression, and even respiratory conditions. “What bl[ows] my mind [about them]”, says Serge, is their “self-sufficiency, community, [and the way that they can] solv[e] a crisis [by] relying on each other” Serge's experience of an immersive exhibition in Kraków, Into the Darkness, which replicates what it's like to not be able to see, with blind guides providing insights about their lives, and the equivalence of this to animals replying on different senses than our own (such as spiders and vibrations, or snakes using infrared thermal radiation) The appeal of twilight, “when everything starts becoming blurry” and takes on the quality of a dream, and “the thrill of [darkness] and [the way that] [Serge's] imagination sometimes takes [him to other] places”. Listen to the whole interview for all this and much more (including the raw terror of Bob from Twin Peaks!). Read more on the recent discoveries from the James Webb Telescope. If you enjoyed this candid and wide-ranging conversation, you can follow Serge on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, SoundCloud, and Apple Music.

In epiaoseepisode 115, Brian and Bean blast off into the cosmos with some good smoke and even better conversation.

Astronomers are using the Webb Telescope to shine a little light on the bizarre magnetic field surrounding Neptune.

Earlier this summer, astronomers discovered something strange whizzing past Jupiter: an interstellar object. Scientists named it 3I/ATLAS. It's only the third interstellar object ever observed, and it's due to leave the solar system by the end of the year, so the race is on to learn as much as we can about it. Host Flora Lichtman talks with astrochemist Stefanie Milam about what this object could teach us about other solar systems—and ours.And, for the past two years, researchers have been studying samples from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu, trying to tease out details about its origins, and what they tell us about our solar system. Researcher Jessica Barnes describes a new analysis of Bennu samples that found stardust, the residue of ancient exploding stars, older than our solar system.Guests: Dr. Stefanie Milam is an astrochemist at NASA and a project scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope. Dr. Jessica Barnes is an associate professor in the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.Subscribe to this podcast.

For centuries, humans have wrestled with the mysteries of the cosmos, from the invisible dark matter and dark energy that shape the universe, to hidden dimensions, parallel universes, and the ultimate fate of all cosmic structures. Such questions force us to consider not only the physics of the universe, but the possibility that non-human intelligence—whether biological or artificial—could exist far beyond Earth, or perhaps also closer to home. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at some of the greatest modern mysteries of the cosmos, as well as the question of whether there is life elsewhere in the universe. If so, could it have already created its own artificial intelligence, and might such alien AI have evolved to superintelligent levels, and could some phenomena we observe today, such as UAP, be linked to such entities?  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.

In 2020, the YSES-1 system became the first directly imaged multiplanetary system around a Sun-like star. It features two giant exoplanets orbiting a star just 16 million years old. Now, the James Webb Space Telescope is revealing new insights into these distant worlds. Host Sarah Al-Ahmed speaks with Kielan Hoch, Giacconi Fellow at the Space Telescope Science Institute and principal investigator of the JWST program that captured these observations, and Emily Rickman, ESA science operations scientist at STScI and member of the JWST Telescope Scientist Team for coronagraphy. They explore what makes this system so unusual, including a dusty circumplanetary disk around YSES-1b and high-altitude silicate clouds in the atmosphere of YSES-1c. Later in the show, Bruce Betts joins for What’s Up to talk about how future telescopes like the Habitable Worlds Observatory could help us image smaller, colder, and older planets.
