Dyson Spheres are probably way beyond what our technology is capable of. A few months ago, a paper by a team of astronomers caused a stir because it was hinted by some that their findings — several ...
The story of the “alien megastructure” star KIC 8462852 has been utterly fascinating and it looks as though even now, the mystery just got a little deeper. Discovered by Tabetha Boyajian of Yale ...
Alien-hunting telescopes have peered at the mysterious star KIC8462852 and are quickly unraveling the theory that this star could harbor an alien megastructure. The search is just the beginning of a ...
In 2015, astronomers discovered something downright weird in a star with the unassuming catalogue number KIC 8462852.
The award for strangest star in the universe just went to KIC 8462852. And while some are saying that this star could be harboring a giant structure built by an advanced alien civilization, the ...
There's a prosaic explanation for at least some of the weirdness of "Tabby's star," it would appear. The bizarre long-term dimming of Tabby's star — also known as Boyajian's star, or, more formally, ...
A rendering of a potential Dyson sphere, named after Freeman A. Dyson. As proposed by the physicist and astromomer decades ago, they would collect solar energy on a solar system wide scale for highly ...
In the constellation Cygnus, roughly 1,470 light-years from Earth, sits an otherwise unremarkable star that briefly became one of the most talked-about objects in the sky. Its brightness does not vary ...
Named by some as the ‘most mysterious star in the universe’, KIC 8462852 or Tabby’s Star has been keeping astronomers and the public hooked thanks to the theory that the star could be home to an alien ...
