Thoughts on possible planets?

    I was just classifying this star and found what I believe to be a pretty distinct dip at around 21 days in quarter 1-1. I looked at other quarters based on other classifiers and it seems like there may be at least one planet (possibly more) orbiting this star. I was wondering if anyone else could take a look and give their thoughts 😃

    That distinct dip might look dramatic, but check the y-axis (left margin) and the dimming is not all that much. The real tell is the rest of the light curve -- if it's not regular than it's probably just fairly typical variable star behavior.
