3I/Atlas, the third confirmed interstellar object that passes through our solar system after 1I/Oumuamua, which was supposedly an asteroid, but the matter is under debate, 2I/Borisov, which everyone confirms is a comet, no one doubts that, an interstellar comet and 3I/Atlas, an interstellar object with cometary activity.

Shows certain details such as gas jets, certain details of the
core of 3I/Atlas that are not seen, but are determined by those bright areas that are its coma and a broad tail; but there is one very important thing about a bold and risky plan to try to send a spacecraft to 3I/Atlas published on January 21, the researchers are Adam Hibberd, T. Marshall Eubanks and Andreas Hein.

The flight time would be between 35 to 50 years with a possible arrival at the objective because towards the year 2085, if it were 50 years, I do not think the mission would be too expensive, what would be expensive would be the amount of fuel, if it needs a lot of fuel, it would be expensive, because if talking about tons of fuel and putting a ton in space is what makes a space mission more expensive, that is why most space missions use gravitational assistance to reach their objective.
