This star is very intriguing, I hope we get a concrete answer for it in my lifetime.

Question, they say it can't be planets because the dips aren't periodic (also that planets wouldn't be big enough to block that amount of light). But wouldn't a Dyson sphere (or ring) have a set orbit as well? Or is the assumption that the dips happen as they add more panels to the sphere?

Love hearing everyone's theories on this.
