Tabby's Star Mystery Solved?

The latest theory for the peculiar dimming of Tabby's Star is quite plausible - but sadly doesn't involve aliens.

The brightness changes might indicate that a large planet fell into the star recently - probably a gas giant and its associated moons.

Which is not nearly as much fun as a Dyson's Sphere, but interesting to study.
