JWST was scheduled to observe Proxima b in 2023, but had a technical error that day and the data was unusable
in 2019 a radio signal was observed originating from the direction of Proxima b, BLC1, which had clear indications of being a technosignature. However this was later deboonked by researchers citing that it "was unlikely, therefore not a technosignature". Ten days prior another team detected a bright flare in the same direction accompanied by radio bursts.
The only news about Proxima b, our closest neighbor, an earthlike planet in the habitable zone of its star, has been from supposed whistleblowers claiming there is an ongoing cover-up.
It is technically possible for a fusion drive ship to make the journey here from Proxima b in around 70-90 years, meaning if they were arriving this year then they would have left approximately around the time when our first radio broadcasts would have reached them.
Atlas 3i is not on a direct path from Proxima b however it would be fairly easy for a ship using a fusion drive to alter course to arrive on Atlas 3i's approach, perhaps in order to obfuscate the origins. If it is artificial then it is most likely from Proxima b imodesu.
