美国一个科学机构说通过开普勒望远镜研究一颗星体的光的变化推测出了外星智慧可能存在。“寻找地外文明机构”Search for Extralterrestrial Intelligence Institute是专门致力于寻找外星智慧的机构。一颗编号为KIC 8462852的恒星的光的变化一直困扰着这个机构的科学家们。这个距离地球1480光年的恒星有着奇特的光变，有时候光会突然降低20%，持续时间为一周至几个月不等。科学家们一直没有为这个现象找到很好的解释。耶鲁天文学博士后Tabetha Boyajian上个月发表一篇论文讨论了种种的可能性，包括恒星周围有着大量的彗星碎片，它们遮挡了恒星的光。更疯狂的解释是这个恒星的附近有一个外星智慧建造的巨型结构——戴森球（A Dyson Sphere）。戴森球这个概念是1960年由物理学家Freeman Dyson提出的。这个概念背后的逻辑是高度发达的外星文明也会碰到人类文明遇到的种种问题，如可再生清洁能源的短缺。于是他们会造一个巨大的由太阳能板构成的巨型结构，让它环绕着恒星运行，以此获得能源。SETI为了进一步弄清这个问题提出了调用大型射电望远镜的请求。SETI加州伯克利大学分部的主任Andrew Siemion说我们目前知道有一些无线电波是只能由文明产物发出的，所以SETI计划用射电望远镜仔细研究这个恒星发出的信号，希望能获得进一步关于外星文明的证据。

Bauen Aliens da draußen eine riesige Hülle um einen Stern? Führen sie vielleicht sogar einen Krieg und zerstören Planeten? Der Stern KIC 8462852 verhält sich seltsam und "Aliens" erschien vielen Medien als die beste Erklärung. Was dort wirklich abgeht erfahrt ihr in der neuen Folge der Sternengeschichten.

  Tonight, we’re going to talk about “the Most Mysterious Star” in the Universe–   “Tabby’s Star.”   This amazing celestial object, named for the astronomer that led the team that first identified it, Dr. Tabetha Boyajian, Tabby’s Star was initially brought to public attention after four-years of NASA’S Kepler Space Telescope observations.  Tabby’s Star exhibits an extraordinary and unique pattern of “semi-regular, stellar eclipses” … caused by “something” that astronomers cannot see or detect by any other means!   Theories to explain this baffling astronomical enigma have ranged from “clouds of orbiting dust” coming between the star and Earth, to seriously proposed “orbiting ET mega-structures” … built (or BEING built!) by some “alien, super civilization.”   My guest tonight, Garry Sacco — another “citizen scientist” — has just published a peer-reviewed scientific paper that predicts the next “pattern of eclipses” for Tabby’s Star … which will allow us to decide which [...]

Adam Rutherford talks to astronomer Tabetha Boyajian at Louisiana State University about the wierd star that's perplexed astronomers since its discovery two years ago. KIC 8462852 has the unique habit of intermittently and sometimes dramatically dimming and then brightening. Some scientists even suggested vast alien megastructures around the star might be the explanation. After twenty months of almost continuous observation, Professor Boyajian has much more information about what the star is doing. But the big mystery hasn't gone away. BBC News science correspondent Jonathan Amos joins Adam to share some highlights in space exploration for the coming 12 months. Zoologists and engineers at the University of Oxford are developing an app that identifies one species of mosquito from another by analysing the sounds their rapid wing beats make. Graihagh Jackson visits Marianne Sinka at the Zoology Department to listen to her collection of mosquito songs. Did the widespread introduction of the food additive trehalose fuel the emergence of epidemics of virulent Clostridium difficile in hospitals from the early 2000s? Microbiologist Robert Britton tells Adam about the evidence his team has gathered and published this week in the journal 'Nature'.

  NICK WALKER:  Welcome to Manage This, the podcast by project managers for project managers.  This is our time to meet and talk about what's important to you in the fast-paced, sometimes puzzling, but always compelling world of project management. I'm your host, Nick Walker, and with me are two of the most compelling individuals I know, Andy Crowe and Bill Yates.  And Andy, it looks like we have another first here on Manage This.  This is our first guest to actually have a star named after her. ANDY CROWE:  This is going to be fascinating to dig into today, Nick.  And I'm looking forward to it, not just from the project standpoint, but also just out of pure curiosity about this.  This is really going to be interesting. NICK WALKER:  Well, Tabetha Boyajian is joining us via Skype from Louisiana State University, where she's a professor and astronomer.  She has a degree from the College of Charleston and a Ph.D. from Georgia State University.  She studied the sizes of nearby stars similar to the sun using Georgia State's CHARA array, located at Mount Wilson Observatory in Southern California.  She was awarded a Hubble Fellowship designed to encourage promising scientists in their independent research.  She was the lead author of the 2015 paper titled “Where's the Flux?” which investigated the highly unusual light curve of the star known as Tabby's Star, named in her honor.  Tabetha, it's a privilege to have you with us here on Manage This. TABETHA BOYAJIAN:  Oh, thank you.  It's nice to talk to y'all. NICK WALKER:  Now, before we get into the details of your project, I should say that I recognize the official name of Tabby's Star is KIC 8462852.  But do you mind if we just continue to call it Tabby's Star? TABETHA BOYAJIAN:  Yeah, that's certainly fine.  It doesn't really roll off your tongue when you say KIC 8462852; right? NICK WALKER:  It really doesn't.  But so cool to have a star named after you.  How did that come about? TABETHA BOYAJIAN:  It was probably by accident, I suppose.  The star got, well, the story of it went a little viral.  And a colleague of mine was talking to a reporter; and, instead of saying “KIC 8462852,” he said “Tabby's Star.”  And that reporter put it into print, and then it just kind of caught on after that. NICK WALKER:  Well, if stars can be celebrities, this one surely qualifies because it's been sort of the center of this mystery in science circles.  It seems that every so often the past few months the star has become dimmer, a lot dimmer, sometimes for days at a time.  Can you give us some background on the star and the current project surrounding it? TABETHA BOYAJIAN:  Yeah, well, it all started with the NASA Kepler Mission.  So this was a mission launched in 2009 to find planets around stars.  And what it did is it stared at a single piece of sky for four years straight, taking brightness measurements of over 100,000 stars in that one tiny field.  And it was looking for the chance alignment of a planet to be crossing in front of a star.  So we would see it periodically dim the starlight that we were observing.  And it did that, and it did that very, very well.  And that's how this star was identified, because this star was one of the 100,000 or so that it looked at.  And instead of seeing a periodic small drop in the star's brightness with time, this star had very irregular drops in its brightness. NICK WALKER:  So I know that there have been a lot of theories that have come out about why this is happening, some of them a little maybe farfetched. ANDY CROWE:  Oh, come on, Nick.  Farfetched?  Alien megastructures?  Dyson Spheres?  That's not farfetched. NICK WALKER:  Okay, you said it, you said it. ANDY CROWE:  Or dust clouds, or comets, yeah.  There's a lot of possibility here. BILL YATES:  A dimmer switch. ANDY CROWE:  It's a big universe, and that's the point. BILL YATES:  It is, it is.

On the first UFO Report… TABBY STAR: Mysterious ‘Alien Megastructure' Star Is at It Again LINK - http://www.nbcnews.com/mach/space/mysterious-alien-megastructure-star-it-again-n763001 Star KIC 8462852, or Boyajian's star (also nicknamed "Tabby's star," for astronomer Tabetha Boyajian, who led the team that first detected the star's fluctuations), has demonstrated an irregular cycle of growing dimmer and then returning to its previous brightness. Scientists have hypothesized that the changes could be due to a swarm of comets passing in front of the star, that they're the result of strong magnetic activity, or that it's some massive structure built by aliens. But no leading hypothesis has emerged, so scientists have been eager to capture a highly detailed picture of the light coming from the star during one of these dimming periods.

Astronomers are perplexed by a mysterious star in the constellation Cygnus. Comet swarm? Dyson sphere? We just don't know. This is the story behind Tabby's Star. This episode was produced independently by me, Asher Isbrucker. Tabby's Star is also commonly referred to as the WTF Star (WTF comes from "Where's the Flux?", the name of Tabby's paper and a common expression of disbelief), and also its Kepler catalog number KIC 8462852.

00:00:55 Fish that spend part of the time on land - such as mudskippers, American eels, and sea scorpions - may have evolved that ability separately more than 30 times! 00:07:08 Tabby's Star, also known as Where's The Flux, has been described as "the most mysterious star in the universe". It's the star with the strange dimming patterns that caused some speculation that it might be an alien megastructure. Well it almost certainly isn't an alien megastructure, but the story behind its discovery and the plans to study it closer are just as cool! 00:18:00 A new study finds links between low-fibre diets and peanut allergies.   This episode may contain traces of Tabetha Boyajian's TED Talk, The most mysterious star in the universe.  

Released: 27 May 2016 Duration: 67 minutes, 16 seconds   We interview LSU astronomer Bradley Schaefer about why is sticking to his guns about the century-long dimming of Tabby's Star (KIC 8462952), why some popular explanations fail, and what can be done to further explore the reason that this star's behavior is so behavior. In particular, Brad wants to encourage us to contribute to Tabetha Boyajian's kickstarter to buy telescope time to monitor the star.   Links: The Fast and Slow Dimming of Tabby's Star Tabby's Star for the Perplexed, Part 1 The Most Mysterious Star in the Universe Brad Schaefer: KIC 8462852 Faded at an Average Rate of 0.165+-0.013 Magnitudes Per Century From 1890 To 1989 Brad Schaefer on Centauri Dreams: Further Thoughts on the Dimming of KIC 8462852     Credits: Host and Producer: Paul Carr Announcer: Erin Carr Music: DJ Spooky, George Hrab   The Wow!
