Harvard professor Avi Loeb joins Marty Skovlund Jr. to unpack the newest interstellar visitor, 3I/ATLAS, and to draw a hard line between extraordinary claims and extraordinary evidence on UAPs. We get specific on what’s actually observed for 3I/ATLAS, how it compares with prior interstellar detections, and the kind of sensors, data, and public transparency that would move the needle on UAP research. We also talk about why bold science—done rigorously—still pays dividends for science, culture, and technology.Avi Loeb was the  longest serving chair of Harvard’s Department of Astronomy, the founding lead of the Galileo Project, and bestselling author of nine books, including “Extraterrestrial” and “Interstellar.” He holds a PhD in Physics, was a long-term member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, and authored over a thousand scientific papers (with h-index of 131 and i10-index of 614) on a wide range of topics, including black holes, the first stars, the search for extraterrestrial life and the future of the Universe.Follow Avi’s work on Medium: Buy Avi’s book “Interstellar”Buy Avi’s book “Extraterestrial”New here?
