According to plasma cosmology, the universe is pervaded by an intertwined web of Birkeland currents. These currents are normally invisible, and are detectable only by their magnetic tell-tales.
Occasionally, the plasma double layers which separate different charge potentials explode, releasing large amounts of energy. There is no requirement to actually have a star at the location of the explosion in this scenario. The only thing needed is an instability insulating walls of the Birkeland currents. The location of this explosion is likely the nexus of several current strands.

there isn't any GREAT cover up in science, you'll find that most professors aren't disinformation agents trying to sway the general public off course. they've spent a lot of time studying and being trained.. and some even go as far to dedicating a large piece of their life to their work.
they are the experts, not you.
