I’m assuming its natural.

But is it still a megastructure today?

While I believe it’s more likely than not that life exists, or has existed, elsewhere in the universe, I would tend to use Occam’s Razor here and look for a natural explanation involving something we already know does exist out there, like a large, dark planet or dead star, or something like that. Could it be an alien megastructure? Sure, it *could* be anything, but common sense suggests a natural explanation for the phenomenon is much, much more likely.

Wright thinks the data will eventually show that KIC 8462852's dimming events are caused by dust.

With all that dust, no way its a Dyson

No explanation is more or less likely as far as I'm concerned. I just want facts without speculation.

It's probably something along these lines:

Perhaps someone might suggest an explanation for something I saw about a month ago that this article makes me remember. I'll describe briefly:

Hour is about 10, 10:30-ish in the evening, Southern California, where there is lots of air traffic seen from our deck, and it's nice to watch while enjoying an evening smoke (tobacco!!!). These nights, the sky was clear, no big banks of clouds.

Location is beneath flight paths of two international airports as well as who knows how many small city/county airports for civil aviation.

On most any evening, you might see as many as five or six moving objects in the sky at various distances, all blinking except those too far away to discern any blink. Their lights are not as bright as the closer planes/helicopters.

On three nights (two consecutive, then the night after) I saw what I first assumed was a plane/helicopter coming from the west traveling east, as it was the same speed and certain brightness of other air traffic and what looked to be the same general altitude. However, it didn't blink, turned very bright, dimmed, and disappeared over the course of maybe three seconds. It reappeared, dim at first then brightening like a glitterball, then dim again, at the same rate of speed only an inch or two higher in the sky traveling east, then disappear as it travelled ... to reappear again where it would be same rate of speed, only, again, an inch or two higher, then ... dim, but not reappear.

Per night, I saw this from the same point on the horizon, about four or five of them the first night during two visits to the deck over the course of an hour, maybe three the second, and the third night maybe twice, and never again since then.

It was if they would stay in motion, but only be illuminated for periods lasting three seconds or so before either disappearing at the height of brightness, or disappearing by dimming out ... then reappearing three or four seconds later at what looks like considerably higher altitude.

Was it a satellite? Or, I should say, were they satellites? I am totally perplexed.

A Dyson sphere? LOL

I am sure that we can tell from here....

No mystery whatsoever once you admit that stars are effected by galactic Birkland currents. 99.9% of all matter in the Universe is in the plasma state, yet astronomers refuse to acknowledge that plasma is electrical in nature (lightning is plasma) and continue to call the Solar Electric Current “solar wind”. An electrical interpretation in astrophysics would quickly evaporate “big bang”, “black hole”, “dark matter”, “dark energy” and other kludge theories based, not upon observation but upon mathematical modeling and computer simulation. I’m gonna tell you one thing, kid...GIGO.
