(Abraham) Loeb has caught the public’s – and NASA’s – attention for his comments about a newly discovered interstellar object, known as 3I/ATLAS, that is hurtling toward the sun and through our solar system. NASA says it’s a comet. Loeb suggests it could be alien technology.

"A Harvard professor suggested it could be alien."

Yes, thank you for quoting the exact problem with the title.

There is NO EVIDENCE that aliens exist. Ever. Period. Absolutely none.

That doesn't mean aliens cannot exist, but it exemplifies the profound unlikelihood of anything, ESPECIALLY a basically 100% ballistic tragectory, being aliens.

Again. You do not understand the problem with "specialists" saying stupid things.

This is akin to Dr. Fauci saying, "masks don't have an effect in COVID".

It is GROSSLY IRRESPONSIBLE for professionals to misrepresent the reality of the situation.
