Last fall, a little-known star called KIC 8462852 became our planetary obsession when astronomers said that its erratic flickering could be the result of an alien megastructure. Further observation of Tabby’s Star yielded no signs of aliens, but the sudden dips in luminosity continue to defy explanation. Now, things just got a bit weirder.

- masterp@1ne: +Kade Williams yes because why explore something 1000's of years behind your technology. but still youd think they would want to meet us
- Tommy Felix: WELL IF THE ALIEN ARE THERE I HOPE THE EGG HEAD'S DON'T TRY TO CONTACT THEM. WATCH THEM YES CONTACT NOOOOOOO!
- Bertie Wooster: Gargantuan structures!
You know, I've always liked that word... 'gargantuan'... so rarely have an opportunity to use it in a sentence.
- Christopher Rowe: you know whats not mentioned ever, but seen in a pic in this vid, is a companion star close to this mysterious one. maybe they should look into that.
- FROZEN EMPIRE: It's a military outpost of the Engineers...
- Luis Antonio Marrega: Vídeo excelente, seria perfeito se pedece-mos viajar por toda parte do universo para estudar.
- Killa Watt: I often wonder why they always refer large space made objects as "megastructures"? That sounds more of a terrestrial made thing. A colossal structures would be more fitting.
- asd dfg: Bullshit!!!!
- Pale Moon: there's only one explanation: alien is there.
- Joe Davis: I'm wondering if it is alien, would they know about us?
- David Heller: What those?
- John Dow: well this is interesting and intriguing I think people might be getting a little ahead of their snowshoes. the facts are we have no idea what this is we do not have any models that cover or include the exact data that we have been observing and this means there could be phenomena which have nothing to do with technological beings and we should keep that in mind saying that there are no known astrological phenomena to explain this does not mean aliens.
- Renegade warrior: Our astrophysicists astronomer s are not in a position to confirm conclusively whether any planet is revolving around proxima centaury the star which is only 4.3 light years away.
Strangely these astronomer s are unnecessarily causing confusion by coming out with strange theories like dyson sphere , alien megastructure s etc. Its absolute ly absurd to draw such stupid conclusion s on the star which is 1480 light years away from us. These guys are not sure on proxima centaury but how come they can surmise on this Tabby star.
- Scott Mason: Or electric universe. Our sun is capable of the same thing and is likely responsible for our ice ages.
- Kade Williams: If it is loosing it's dimness then it stands plausible that an alien race much like our own is harnessing energy directly from the star, but to the detriment of the solar system. This sounds a lot like modern day humans with carbon emission. Also, if you think about what it might look like to an alien if they were looking down on a city and seeing cars fly by with rules they didn't understand. Maybe we're witnessing many vessels in a solar system that has a vast complicated transit system. My final thought is, what if they have looked out across the stars much like we have and after doing it for much longer than us, they devised a way to communicate with anyone who ever listened. Maybe the star is fine, but a satellite (or something akin to one) is pumping out different lights and dimness to any would be viewers to say either Hello, or "don't come here." Those are my ideas in the direction of other lifeforms. Don't have any ideas as far as non sentient beings though.
- Scott Mason: +Kade Williams Who knows, perhaps we are farmed like beef for food and it's almost time for the slaughter.
- Curiosity: Collecting energy?!? No it's Star Base 12...
- Bryan Dilworth: jorgedefoe1 could be watching a galaxy form n as the planets grow the light would dim more
- LowLands Pete: Fucktards debunked retracted and old news
- masterp@1ne: well theres def life on other planets im not ruling anything out. time to find e.t.'s out there i dont care if its a butthole that walks and talks, give us something!
- Kade Williams: +masterp@1ne I will always hope that alien life would want to meet us, but I doubt it. We have a lot of faults that would lead an intelligent species who would gain nothing from an interaction from us (and possibly loose some things) it might make them afraid to communicate with us. At least directly.
- Kade Williams: I'm not sure if I agree, but it is an interesting thought. Our sun is certainly very complicated and has its own kind of seasons, so I could see that though. The probelm is that we are watching tens of thousands of stars right now, well maybe not watching, but we are collecting data on them and going through it and we havn't found any others like this one. Maybe it isn't an anomoly. right now there just isn't enough evidence, but time will give us more information.
- Rad Dog: Joe Davis if they are able to build a working Dyson sphere it's almost certain they know about us
- Kade Williams: still doesn't explain it, even with planetary destruction and large swarms of meteors. I'm not saying it isn't that, just that it doesn't quite fit. Maybe there is a black hole between here and there that is bending the light?
- Kade Williams: Most of us humans, and we're doing this in space to some degree, stomp and leave a mark of their space as though we are evolutionary disposed to do this, our species at least wants to be known and heard. As I've already said, that probably isn't the case of any alien life. It doesn't really matter if they can see us though, what if they are an alien species that doesn't see the light spectrum like we do, but wanting to hide their star from other species, they build something around their star to repel them. We are nothing like them so we haven't discovered any type of signal coming from that star, so it doesn't effect us. We see the stuctures how ever even though that alien species enemies can't see it. Just a thought.
- sickquads4me: The fallen angels are comeing!!! O nooooo!!! :)
- David E: the proper position is we don't know. Not there is aliens
- David Heller: How come?
- Scott Mason: +Kade Williams Not quite, we might not even be able to see them once they dim sufficiently. If this star winks out we will certainly have to give thought to that proposal.
- 1234567890khbpcb: They would not be able to see us if they are there.
- jorgedefoe1: EMV's
- masterp@1ne: right
- Monstermind 1989: if they are exist then they are no longer type 2 so, we better be careful with the messages we try to send to the deep space, cause today we are type 0 and most of the facts is showing that we all going to die at this stage if we keep going this way...
- Ponton21: Eclipse we are too far away to realize happened. Notice the dip is in HOURS not days.
- OblivionFall: Dyson Sphere's are ridiculously impractical, even for aliens. A Dyson Swarm is far more logical, but I'm putting my money on a Planet Cloud, a group of thousands of life sustaining habitats that orbit around a planet to create more living space.
Of course, we don't have any conclusive evidence either way. We'll know more in May 2017 when the light is expected to dim again. Even more in 2019, where we can use the James Web Space Telescope to scan for the infra-red signals that would be detected if any kind of Megastructure was indeed being built.
- Travis polson: I would put my money on planetary destruction before alien megastructure .
- RealityNews: That's the star of death... The Apocalypse is coming. LOL.
- michaelaltun: i believe aliens exist right there
- John Dow: +Kade Williams indeed. I remain agnostic. I do not think it would be a black hole. It is more likely some kind of large natural structure. If a Dyson sphere could explain it then the likely natural analog would be a structure of matter... It has to be huge. But who knows?
- Kade Williams: I agree. I still hope it's aliens, but I acknowledge it and then put it behind me. The facts don't even come close to proving aliens. It's really just as fascinating if it is natural. My thought was perhaps a black hole might be between our star and that one and might be bending the light in transit? There might be something that could easily disprove this.
- Bill B: *are
- opossom1968: think of this. Lets say you have the ability to make a structure that
can encompass a star.
Question? why?
Now that you have, in essence a captured start and all its energy, you
can now MOVE that star as you have isolated it from space.
Now lets take that one step further. You move that star or Build a SHIP
around that star, effectively using it as a Engine for your MASSIVE
ship.
science has many time stated if you wanted to move between galaxy's you
would need the energy of a star for power.
Now some one has that power to do just that.
food for thought.
- Kade Williams: Wow, haven't even thought of that. That would imply an empire right on our door step
hope they aren't as cruel as we can imagine an empire to be. Then again, it could be a single life form, like a giant whale that eats stars.
- Avanteification: so what is the new study? could be i've missed it, but I feel like I heart all of this before...
- Kade Williams: That's faulty logic. We humans want to explore the universe. There is no reason to believe that all intelligent life want to expand. My experience is that intelligent life can be pretty lazy on the whole.
