It might save or destroy us, the interstellar visitor 3I/ATLAS is forcing humanity to confront a cosmic gamble of unprecedented magnitude.

In mere months, the interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS has become the centrepiece of a fierce debate among scientists, with Avi Loeb of Harvard University at the forefront, warning that the object may not be a benign comet, but a deliberate probe from an alien intelligence. The implications, he asserts, could be existential.
