Are there some scientists or who would think as a scientist?
Please, someone who will observe this phenomenon, could you please tilt camera to see if it is just weird camera lens flare, or real relativistic jets?

It's almost perfectly due east from the 3A1P-N system, as seen here. If we could get some other angles on it from different parts of the cluster we could do a rough triangulation of its position.

Aelisha gives us this image from Jita.
Morwen Lagann gives us this image from Tash-Murkon and this image from the Khanid region.

Triangulation?
That's what I found on my journey - maybe someone with better maps can connect my recent solar system using the given direction.

It's clearly in Jove space or just to the east of it.

There are two more things about this celestial object.
First, did anyone find it from New Eden system?...

And second. It seems to appear in multiple systems across the universe. Knowing, that light from a celestial source travels with constant speed, we can conclude that this object is rather... old.
And if this is an active black hole or supernova, we would have seen its ignition or explosion, as it would be rather bright and noticeable.

Thus final conclusion would be, that the object existed way before, just nobody paid to it their attention. Capsuleer society is known with its amateur approach to scientific matters. And this object should definitely be in published star catalogues, where a professional scientist or researcher would look in the first place. Otherwise, a professional scientist would note its absence in the catalogues and that this spot on the sky was empty (which, I believe, wasn't).

If anyone's interested I did a tour of the areas surrounding Jove space & took images of the strange star. Not sure if this helps at all but here it is.

Ok let's try this. Of ALL the places checked, where is this supposed star seen brightest?

I'd say Vale of the Silent. Given that region's proximity to Jove space I suspect this star is either in Jove space or UUA-F4.

Get confirmation. Can we enter UUA?

The star's location has been mostly confirmed as W477-P, further confirmation will be ran on this.

How has it been confirmed?

Also, Anslo, UUA is not connected to the rest of the cluster, so no.

Here's two shots, taken from two different systems at 'the top' of Vale of the Silent:

notice the change in relation to the stars 'behind' it. the two bright white ones in particular.

Looks like Sansha found something they could not handle.

Considering they fight to the death, anything to subjunct their directives bodes ill for everybody.

Commander Kim has some very good points.

Can we be certain this star has any significance whatsoever?

I recommend investigating 3-CE1R as well. It's been a long time since Mouse Nell's camera drone but it could be connected even after all this time. It is an orange star...

The last time the Bright Star appeared, just as baffling and unexplainable, it heralded the resurrection of Her Imperial Majesty and all of the momentous events of YC110.

For it to appear again is surely a sign from God, and an omen of things to come.

Correlation does not equal causation. Careful when making pronouncements on unknown phenomenon; perhaps it's not a god's doing... perhaps it's not your god's doing.

What is the furthest system people have been able to see this in?

Judging by reports already, though, It can't just be a star, even the closest systems have multiple lightyears difference in their distances, so it would be impossible for any phenomenon to become observable from multiple systems unless the emissions can travel faster than light (and if they can that is a SERIOUS concern).

The only alternative I can think of is if it were being obscured locally in every system and that obfuscation were disabled simultaneously in every system.

The last time the Bright Star appeared, it was visible from planets, too.
