The Jovian Recharge & Relay Model A Speculative Framework Linking the 1977 "Wow!" Signal and a Candidate Interstellar Object Observed by ATLAS

Authors/Creators

Description

This manuscript is a speculative, hypothesis-driven preprint intended to explore an alternative interpretive framework for certain interstellar-object observations and unresolved SETI-era anomalies.

 

All claims presented herein are explicitly non-conclusive and are offered as falsifiable conjectures rather than established results. The provisional designation “c-3I/ATLAS” is used solely as a placeholder for a candidate interstellar object discussed in public observational discourse, and does not imply official IAU confirmation.

 

The purpose of this work is not to assert extraterrestrial intelligence, but to propose a coherent model that generates testable predictions, particularly in relation to Jovian encounters, non-ballistic acceleration, and transient electromagnetic emissions.

 

The author welcomes critical evaluation, refutation, and observational constraints from the astrophysical community.
