The Wandering Star

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." -Arthur C. Clarke

The Wandering Star is a point light in the sky that is visible at night and occasionally during the day. It does not appear to actually be a star as it orbits counter to the rest of the sky, it also doesn't drift in the right way to be an undiscovered planet, asteroid or moon.

Whatever it is, it must be only slightly above the Kármán line, though how it's orbit has stayed so stable at that height for so long is unknown. If it is a satellite then it is one not mentioned on any records that survived the fall. It doesn't just emit visible light, it also emits electromagnetic waves with wavelengths of kilometres, interestingly, when analysed, this secondary signal appears to match the emission spectrum for hydrogen but red-shifted to such a degree that suggests this object should be travelling much faster, or have much gravity then it actually does.

This unusual signal does not appear to change over time, which some have concluded to mean this is not a method of communication. They of course fail to offer any answers as to what it might be to counter this theory. if this thing is of alien origin then it is the height of hubris to suggest we could even begin to understand how something this advanced might communicate.
