Alien Megastructures: Strange Star Likely Swarmed by Comets

An oddly dimming star located 1,500 light-years from Earth is causing all sorts of commotion in the scientific community, leading some to speculate that it may be some sort of alien megastructure. A new analysis of infrared data suggests a more natural explanation.

To quickly recap, star KIC 8462852, also known as “Tabby’s Star,” is exhibiting unprecedented flickering behavior. Normally, astronomers observe dips in brightness when a planet temporarily passes in front of a star. This dimming tends to be slight (just a few percentage points, even for gas giants like Jupiter) and periodic (which is suggestive of a planet in a stable orbit). But Tabby’s Star is different. Very different. At times, its brightness drops by a whopping 22%! What’s more, its brightness changes irregularly, sometimes for days—sometimes for months. Scientists have never observed anything quite like this, leading to all sorts of wild speculation.

For instance, the aperiodic dimming could be the product of a catastrophic collision in the star’s asteroid belt, or the result of a giant impact that disrupted a nearby planet. Alternately, it might just be a dusty cloud of rock and debris. There’s even the possibility that it’s a distorted star. And as Penn State astronomer Jason Wright and colleagues speculated, it might be an alien megastructure, like a Dyson sphere, though as Oxford’s Anders Sandberg points out, that’s bloody unlikely.

In an attempt to learn more about Tabby’s Star, Iowa State University astronomer Massimo Marengo and his team analyzed data acquired by the Infrared Array Camera aboard NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope. As they conclude in their ensuing paper, which now appears at The Astrophysical Journal, the destruction of a family of comets near the star is the most likely explanation for the mysterious dimming.

ARE YOU COMPLETELY PREPARED? THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PREP YOU CAN DO! A TRUE AND ETERNAL INVESTMENT!

The Bible tells us that every human has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God which is is a heart-penetrating truth. He has provided a way to cleanse us of our sins since we can never be “good enough” to cleanse ourselves. That avenue to God’s grace, mercy and forgiveness (the cleansing of our sins) is through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth Who is equally God.

Not one of us are guaranteed a “tomorrow”. Has your time run out? Will you continue to ignore the promptings of God the Holy Spirit or have you awakened to the essential need for God?

God the Holy Father, God the Holy Son and God the Holy Spirit are One God, the true, living, uncreated God Who is ever-present, all knowing, all powerful and all loving. He desires that every single person be forgiven, saved and to live eternally with Him. He is our only real protection and His love for you is unchanging. Accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, the true Messiah, today.

You can’t take your salvation for a test drive. You’re all-in or not.

Admit to Him that you are a sinner in need of forgiveness, that you are truly sorry for your sins. Acknowledge that He died for your sins, rose from the dead and lives forevermore. Invite Him into your life and to help you to turn from sin. Rejoice! You just became a Christian! Now trust in Him and get to know Him through the Bible which tells us everything we need to know and through prayer/talking to Him. He eagerly desires relationship with you.
