"If we can convert that energy into an energy source we can use for daily life, that would help to address the energy challenges we are facing right now," said MIT scientist Hiroki Isobe.

The star, HD74423, is being distorted by a red dwarf that forms part of its binary system.

The federal dragnet is so massive that investigators have given the case the code name "Lurking Giants."

"This groundbreaking work signifies a paradigm shift in antibiotic discovery and indeed in drug discovery more generally," said researcher Roy Kishony.

"It's like a preemptive strike, with less mess," study author Sung Wook Paek said.
