The ejected plasma cloud will hit the 3I/ATLAS object in 2 days.

Plasma ejection on October 21-22, 2025, with the object position 3I/ATLAS

According to estimates, the plasma cloud ejected after today's explosion is directed precisely (within 10-20 degrees) in the direction of the object 3I/ATLAS, which is now passing on the opposite side of the Sun at a distance of about 200 million km with a slight shift to the northwest. This is exactly the direction in which the ejection went. The ejection front will hit the object at approximately 3 p.m. Moscow time on Friday, October 24. The comet will remain inside the plasma cloud for at least 1.5-2 days.

In general, let's see how aliens are with meteorological sensitivity. In H.G. Wells's War of the Worlds, ordinary flu viruses were enough for nature.
