BREAKING The WTF Star KIC 8462852 is Dimming Again Right on Schedule featuring Gary Sacco

Author: John Michael Godier July 28, 2026 Duration: 45:57

The mystery of the the Alien Megastructure star continues! The WTF star or KIC 8462852 as well as Tabby's Star, is DIMMING again right on schedule. We know it is very fine dust, what we don't know is what is replenishing the dust and WHY the dust is cold despite quite possibly being in a periodic orbit around KIC 8462852.Gary Sacco has been working with Tabetha Boyajian to continue to watch the star closely. As well, in 2017 Gary was the lead author on a paper predicting A 1574-DAY PERIODICITY OF TRANSITS ORBITING KIC 8462852, and that prediction seems to be correct with the new dip observed on September 10th.
