Variability of stars is not implementable now, but it's planned according the TODO list.

Cool, looking forward to it, what about the accretion disks from binary stars that get too close, is that already a thing? I also had quasars on my mind.  A lot of Neutron stars and other similar bodies have jets that blast out of them.

Edit yeah I found it on the TODO list, thanks!

From the TODO list:
[...]
Stars:
  • Tidal distortion of shape, filling the Roche limit (taking into account the ellipticity of orbits)
  • Animation of flowing substance, accretion disks and jets
  • Quasars with accretion disk
  • Neutron stars and pulsars with the animated jets, embedding it into the nebula model
  • Stars velocities in the galaxy (needed for ship's hyperflight physics)
  • Animation of surface
[...]

That would been even cooler when applied to stars like Betelgeuse.
