The periodic and secular dimming of KIC 8462852 is not due to comets

I am in the middle of writing a paper regarding my thesis.

I also have a sense of humour but also hold you as a peer so to speak.

Very few people would even begin to understand the dynamics.

Kick starting a core would require a lot of energy, more than likely at some point some explosions will have taken place at the core as well as potentially drilling to the corebof the planet, similar to sinkholes? That or after mapping a huge volcanic system on the planet energy could be directed into the core.

At some point the energy being redirected will have to be lessened, but not stopped as the potential planet being terraformed would be too far away like Mars to remain under the constant influence of the stars energy.

Well to me that would seem to be overkill but maybe not. Scott Manley actually has a pretty good video on YouTube showcasing how much energy it would take to destroy a planet in a Death Star like fashion. Perhaps this is Starkiller base getting ready to destroy the rebellion or something lol.

It has a small black hole or another very dim star in orbit around it that is stealing its gas, thus the long term dimming.

Seems an obvious theory. First detection of small black hole?

Maybe the light itself is a signal.

Not everyone thinks the best way to comunicate is with radio waves.

is it pointed at us?!

That was one theory, but I don't see how that explains this steady secular dimming.

Could there be a natural phenomenon that acts the way a "Starkiller Base" would? Like a moving black hole that "orbits" the star, slowly pulling matter away from it and also occasionally passing between us and the star, absorbing radiation that would otherwise head towards us and creating the unusual dimming effect?

I know it's probably not the same kind of star as in the link but you get the idea

So...

Where does one find the requisite silicon in a solar system to build a Dyson's sphere?

Sounds the same as what this book is talking about:

The structure the aliens are building is made of gold, which the aliens mined from our planet. They need this structure as a protective shield on their thinning atmosphere.

When Astro says it is possibly aliens, then you know it is aliens!
