SPECIAL EDITION | 3I/Atlas – Best Photographic Data to Date

BACKGROUND:
Analyzed here is a photograph taken by amateur astronomers Michael Jäger and Gerald Rhemann in Namibia (Southern Africa) under conditions of an eclipse which gave them an unprecedented opportunity: the chance to capture 3I/ATLAS under some of the darkest skies on Earth. This photograph was taken on Sept. 7 2025 in the Kalahari Desert in Namibia, Southern Africa.

ANALYSIS:
3I/Atlas recently passed Mars and we are patiently waiting for NASA and the ESA to release photographs of 3I/Atlas photographed by their Mars orbiters. They have been strangely quiet in this regard.

In the meantime I have created a Gigapan of one of the best photographs of 3I/Atlas to date. Credit goes out to amateur astronomers Michael Jäger and Gerald Rhemann who made this possible.

There are several anomalies/artifacts in this photograph as well for which I have no explanation, astronomers out there, please let us know what these strange anomalies/artifacts may be.

IMAGE UPSCALING:
To see more examples of how well this image upscaler works and to read about the technology used please refer to the following web page:

Topaz Labs’ Gigapixel is not the run-of-the-mill free AI image upscaler. It is an expensive piece of sophisticated software used in studios and by professional photographers around the world, even NASA uses Topaz Labs upscaling technology.

DISCLAIMER:
Many or all of the anomalies/artefacts covered in this presentation may be naturally occurring geological features caused by some type of geological processes, however due to the lack of specific information from the source we can only speculate whether these are all natural or some artificial in nature.

In cases where I say an anomaly looks like something I’m attempting to clarify what I see and not specifically that the anomaly is what I say it looks like.

My intention is only to share anomalies I’ve discovered on Mars and not to convince anyone that there is or was a civilization on Mars.

As Will Farrar from WhatsUpInTheSky says: “I see what I see, you see what you see.”
