Space has its mysteries

Towering waves.

“Towering waves more three times the size of the sun are crashing on an enormous, distant star.

The star in question is paired with another in a highly elliptical orbit. As the stars swing close together, their gravities pull on each other to produce tidal waves, much like how the moon creates tides on Earth. This stretches the stars, causing them to bulge out at the equator, which makes them seem brighter for a while,"

Space is wonderful, But we do not know anything that God has created, We would not expect to see little green men on this star or its planet.
