" It is so easy to make errors, whilst processing very dim astronomical objects and this is what we believe we did in trying to image the interstellar comet, which at the time the data collection was estimated to be at magnitude 15 (very dim indeed). We have re-processed the same data more carefully and believe that these images show C/2025 31 (ATLAS) the Interstellar Comet.
Apologies to our readers from the JPO Team". - Kurt Thrust current Director of the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
