The “Alien Star” Could Have Never Been Found by Computers

Do you agree?

There is an unusual feature of this mysterious star.  And this is an interesting debate in the man/woman vs. machine discussion.  By now you have likely heard about the unusual star discovered in 2015 with the “dyson sphere” around it.  And they STILL do not know what it is!  And by the way experts think computers would have missed this exciting discovery:

Last week the internet was abuzz with rumors of a strange star that some suggested might host an extraterrestrial construction. Astronomers say that scenario is a slim possibility. A more likely explanation is that the weird star, called KIC 8462852, is orbited by a swarm of comets, which is a pretty interesting idea on its own. But either way, this intriguing star might never have been found. The oddball was just one of thousands of stars being monitored by NASA’s Kepler telescope, which searches for the telltale dips in a star’s light caused when exoplanets pass in front of it.

Let’s find out they think computers would have missed this on the next page
