The most mysterious star in the universe

[Konfusius]

Something massive, with roughly 1,000 times the area of Earth, is blocking the light coming from a distant star known as KIC 8462852, and nobody is quite sure what it is.

Such an extraordinary idea would require extraordinary evidence. In this talk, Boyajian gives us a look at how scientists search for and test hypotheses when faced with the unknown.

Maybe your preference for complexity and mystery has resulted in snorting a dictionary and you are currently feeling a little constipated?  

Edit: My apologies godwide, I totally misunderstood your post!
