NASA will present new images of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS at a live briefing on Nov. 19 at 3 p.m. ET, drawing on spacecraft and telescope observations taken around the object's Mars flyby. ESA and other orbiters used those encounters to tighten the comet's trajectory estimate by roughly tenfold.

Briefing
The Nov. 19 briefing consolidates imagery gathered after the comet's Oct. 3 Mars flyby (about 30 million km), where orbiters improved trajectory estimates by an order of magnitude — critical for precise follow‑up observations (Mars orbiters, led by MRO/HiRISE, will image interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS).
The dataset reflects rapid, cross‑agency tasking of NASA, ESA, China’s Tianwen‑1, Hubble/JWST and ground telescopes — a live demonstration of coordinated sensor tasking and data sharing for transient targets (Tianwen‑1 orbiter images interstellar object 3I/ATLAS from ~30 million km and telescopes and ESA spacecraft mobilise as the comet develops a pronounced tail).
