3I/Atlas is yet again going viral, as a new photo set shows the interstellar visitor seemingly changing shape from night to night. It led to a massive surge of excitement and speculation across social media.
According to the viral post, each set of images painted an entirely different picture, sometimes a smooth, disc form, on other nights, streams or jets erupted, and then at times, the comet appeared as a disc with no visible coma, and even sometimes brightly glowing and 'active', only to revert to a conventional comet appearance the next day.
