It usually signals a real physical transition in what the comet is releasing into space as it moves and heats up. The green color commonly seen in comets comes from carbon-based gases , especially diatomic carbon , that fluoresce under sunlight. When a comet is colder or farther out, these gases dominate the coma and give it that classic emerald glow . As the object warms and becomes more active, heavier material begins to escape. Dust reflects sunlight more evenly across the spectrum, producing a yellow or golden appearance. In simple terms, gas dominance gives way to dust dominance. From a Platform 1 Fringe perspective, this transition matters because it suggests 3I/ATLAS is evolving rapidly rather than behaving like a static ice ball. A dust-rich phase can indicate structural changes, s...

Since the start of the war, the majority of Gaza’s population has become dependent on emergency humanitarian assistance. Lazzarini said the level of devastation is beyond what the agency has ever experienced, with over 70% of homes damaged or destroyed and thousands of civilians displaced. He emphasized that ...
