借助 Argon 发现恒星 Gaia DR3 4582145718700356096 在 2010 年 3 月于 22 微米深红外波段亮度约为预期的 60 倍,可见光下却稳定且类似太阳。

I found a weird star with Argon's help. Gaia DR3 4582145718700356096.
It's normal in visible light, stable and similar to our sun. In March 2010 it appeared ~60x brighter than expected in deep infrared heat (22 microns).
As if something around Mars-distance is catching 1.3% of the star's light and radiating it as heat.
Probably a huge cloud of debris from a major planetary collision. Or a radio-silent galaxy hiding behind it. But also the tiniest chance it's a technosignature.
Captured by NASA's WISE telescope, no observations at that wavelength since. Needs more data.
