Did someone leave the Christmas lights on and forget to turn them off?
I think a technological race could easily do this to a tidal-locked planet, but it would be a very difficult thing for such a race to evolve on such a world.
Someday, we’ll, as humans, or our AI, will reach Alpha Centauri and build those mirrors and shades to make the tidal locked world habitable, but until then, it exists as a very hostile environment.
Don’t get too excited the author omits some salient facts:
Red Dwarf planets are likely tidally locked so there is no night side to revolve and reveal surface lights;
The dark side is likely to be frozen ice and lifeless;
Red Dwarfs often emit flares which would fry any life on the starward side.
From Wiki:
Planetary habitability of red dwarf systems is subject to some debate. In spite of their great numbers and long lifespans, there are several factors which may make life difficult on planets around a red dwarf.
First, planets in the habitable zone of a red dwarf would be so close to the parent star that they would likely be tidally locked. This would mean that one side would be in perpetual daylight and the other in eternal night.
This could create enormous temperature variations from one side of the planet to the other. Such conditions would appear to make it difficult for forms of life similar to those on Earth to evolve.
And it appears there is a great problem with the atmosphere of such tidally locked planets: the perpetual night zone would be cold enough to freeze the main gases of their atmospheres, leaving the daylight zone bare and dry.
On the other hand, recent theories propose that either a thick atmosphere or planetary ocean could potentially circulate heat around such a planet.
Variability in stellar energy output may also have negative impacts on the development of life. Red dwarfs are often flare stars, which can emit gigantic flares, doubling their brightness in minutes.
This variability may also make it difficult for life to develop and persist near a red dwarf.
It may be possible for a planet orbiting close to a red dwarf to keep its atmosphere even if the star flares.
However, more-recent research suggests that these stars may be the source of constant high-energy flares and very large magnetic fields, diminishing the possibility of life as we know it. Whether this is a peculiarity of the star under examination or a feature of the entire class remains to be determined.
When they see it they’ll say, “Oh, it’s probably salt.”
This is all wrong. All of it.
A string filament will not behave in this way. Einstein knew that - you should know that.
First there would have to be a civilization on the planet around PCen A. VERY unlikely as PCen A is a Red Dwarf. They are VERY unfriendly stars.
Here we go again...

Which goes a long way toward explaining why this article is a mass of poorly organized and incomprehensible gibberish.
You can’t move 100’ in the U.S. without being watched on someone’s video, every move being watched. Now they want telescopes so powerful they can go right into the alien’s living rooms.
