Or possibly an exercise in high end terraforming by a conjectural highly developed technological human race. Maybe an orbiting controlled fusion reaction circling a earth sized planet with a long slow orbit, somewhere out in the oort cloud? Now, many millenia later, there has been a war/epidemic/philosophical revolution and the locals no longer have a space program, but the 'sun' is guttering.

Or, choose a normal-sized planet and a normal-sized sun. Put permanent cloud cover over the planet, so that the only celestial body that shows through is the sun.

Sure, In the absense of an outside universe there isn't any way to determine which body is relatively stationary. If they found out they weren't the center, would they set out to blow everything else up?
