Do Black Holes Have Hair? Or Are They the Ultimate Bald?
Imagine a glutton, not of cake or fame, but of reality itself. A cosmic vacuum cleaner, devouring light, matter, the very fabric of spacetime. What descriptors could possibly remain for such a creature? Is it truly featureless, a singularity lurking behind an impassable horizon? This brings us to a peculiar question, seemingly frivolous yet deeply profound: do black holes have hair?

3I/ATLAS Update - Rumors and Reality
Executive Summary Comet 3I/ATLAS is the third interstellar object ever identified, discovered on July 1, 2025, by NASA-funded ATLAS from Río Hurtado, Chile. Its hyperbolic trajectory confirms it’s not gravitationally bound to the Sun. It poses no threat to Earth, will pass closest to the Sun around October 30, 2025 (~1.4 AU)*, and won’t come closer to Earth than ~1.8 AU (~270 million km). It is active—i.e., a comet with an icy nucleus and coma—and was traveling at roughly 61 km/s upon discovery, accelerating as it approached perihelion. Observationally, it should be visible to ground telescopes until September 2025, then reappear in early December 2025 after passing too near the Sun’s glare.

You spend years learning how to write. You read everything you can get your hands on. You write, delete, rewrite, edit, polish, and polish again—until your words sing. And now… suddenly, the very thing you worked for, the skill you spent decades honing, is a problem. Because apparently, perfect writing is suspicious. It smells like AI.
