  1. Have you looked? By that, I mean any star that deviates significantly from the standard black body curve. Like what happens when the Parker solar probe's orbit decays and vaporizes in the photosphere? Will there be a detectable signature in the spectrum of the sun because of the more uncommon elements it's made of? If humans wanted to make the sun appear green, how much copper and boron would we have to throw at it? Some alien may perceive our sun as green already because it's pretty close to it already and there will likely be overlaps much like how humans han have much ambiguity around yellow. Finding Heavy element spectral signatures in a star that shift it far away from the standard blackbody curve would be most epic if you asked me.

  2. Fun thought, if any alien is looking for a green star and get hit by the copper lasers from a pink Floyd concert in 1994 and decide it's modulation to hear the division bell, imagine our first contact being a pink Floyd concert!
