Avi Loeb Calls for UN Protocols on Extraterrestrial Contact
Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb is urging the United Nations to establish formal protocols for extraterrestrial contact as the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS approaches the inner solar system.
Loeb's appeal has taken on renewed urgency as 3I/ATLAS, traveling at approximately 130,000 kilometers per hour, nears its closest point to the Sun.
Loeb calls on the UN to create alien contact protocols, reigniting debate over global preparedness.
The object is moving faster than any known comet, prompting concerns about the need for a unified global response in the event of extraterrestrial contact.
