Increasing anomalies may influence Avi Loeb to elevate the comet’s position on his Loeb Scale.
Comet 3I/ATLAS has been getting a lot of attention lately because it keeps showing signs that don’t
fully fit what we normally expect from a comet. Avi Loeb, a well-known Harvard astrophysicist,
created something called the Loeb Scale to help scientists talk about unusual space objects without
jumping to wild ideas. This scale goes from 1 to 10.
A Level 4 rating means the object is strange but still most likely natural.
A Level 5 rating is where natural explanations start feeling weak, and scientists begin to wonder if
something more unusual might be going on.
