It could be a spaceship with an engine failure....

 

Well, it can also just be a star that is traveling fast due to some unknown reason.

What brought this star up to speed?

A black hole seems to be the only explanation.

i like the spaceship theory better

a spaceship the size of a sun? Sounds like that would have some problems with it's gravitational field and trying to visit other planets.

could be a fleet of ships. and the death star was the size of a moon so whos to say it cant be the size of a sun? it could act as a mothership

[Kedas]

Earth is also a 'spaceship' you know (although without engine)

 

It's just an alien race that figured out how to travel by moving their entire solar system. (this way they never have to worry about going back or getting lost)

 

Well, for now it will just have to stay under pneudoscience LOL
