TED anomaly - The most mysterious star in the universe

It is a fleet of Alien ships warping in and out on a journey to earth from the direction of that star. A fleet would generally travel in a straight line from point A to point B. We see it at different times due to the fleet moving into and out of warp travel or some other form of FTL travel.

We did not just find Aliens but spotted the Invasion force, I doubt you need a fleet which can block 20% of light from a Star to say greetings.

It is the Blorg friendship force.

Could a star recently ingesting a particularly large planet for example, cause some dimming of the star?

Well, would explain parts of the data, please anyone correct me if I am wrong. I think it has to do with the shape of the light obstruction in the graph, a Jupiter planet would appear in a clean U-shaped dip. But the data shows these strange deep slopes that cause a significant dimming and that would indicate that the object blocking the star is not circular (say a planet). The comet swarm mentioned would fit most of the observations, except the swarm would need to number in the tens of thousands to produce something like that.
