Description: Scientists just revealed they're sending radio messages to an object that keeps on dimming this star. Today, we take a look at what scientists have just discovered out in space. As our technology becomes more and more advanced, it becomes easier to scan the skies and understand what hides behind the light of the stars we see from Earth. Now, a lot of astronomical research that is taking place is focused on dimming stars. It is one of the first things that is considered when looking into exoplanets, planets outside of our solar system, which is a huge field of study. Therefore, it is unsurprising that the story behind the discovery of a new celestial object began just like that, with a mysteriously dimming star. KIC 8462852 is a star around 1,480 light years away from us here on Earth.... Thank you for watching! Thank you to CO.AG for the background music!
