On social media (accompanied by fake AI images), they say the comet (alleged spacecraft) is coming with more comets behind it. IT'S FALSE!
It doesn't bring companions; it comes alone.
It's turned green:
31/ATLAS has now turned green, and is that something strange? No! It's approaching our sun; solar heat activates certain gases in its coma.
When a comet enters the inner Solar System, the Sun's heat sublimates the ice in its nucleus, releasing gases such as cyanogen (CN₂) and diatomic carbon (C₂).
The Sun's ultraviolet radiation excites these molecules. When they return to their normal state, they emit green light, a process called fluorescence.
