From a Different Star: 3I/ATLAS in the context of the \={O}tautahi-Oxford interstellar object population model
3I/ATLAS's incoming speed and direction fit the Otautahi-Oxford model, which predicts it is an old (likely over 7.6 Gyr), water-rich object with no kinematic link to 1I/Oumuamua or 2I/Borisov.
