Man, I was hoping this book series would get a mention here. Blocking out the sun as a means of transmitting a message is something that happens in the series. Or, it’s talked about, at least. It’s been a while since I’ve read it.
It was using a high power radio transmission through the corona of the sun to act as a lens to magnify the signal, essentially turning our sun into a lighthouse. The shit that happens in the third book is mind melting in comparison. Dimensional attacks (shifting your dimension downwards) from 3D to 2D, by a potentially multidimensional entity, ironically unrelated to the original antagonists, and thus confirming the Dark Forest Hypothesis.
