> "two of KIC 5520878’s characteristic frequencies—with a 4.05- and a 6.41-hour cycle, respectively—had a ratio of 1.58, close to the golden mean, an irrational number," there are lots of things in nature - and everywhere - that are "close to" the golden ratio, but few that are extremely, tantalizingly close. 1.58 is not close; there's no story here. call me when it's 1.618* see #5 here [1] [1] http://www.goldennumber.net/golden-ratio-myth/ http://www.goldennumber.net/golden-ratio-myth/
