The IAU Combats Misinformation on Interstellar Object Comet 3I/Atlas.
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has launched a global
campaign to disseminate accurate scientific information about the
recently discovered interstellar visitor, 3I/ATLAS. This initiative,
spearheaded by the IAU’s Office for Astronomy Outreach (OAO), and its
Minor Planet Centre (MPC), aims to inform the public and media while
minimising the effect of sensationalist rumors and false information
circulating online.
