A Ringworld would be more likely than a Dyson sphere, the mass requirements are so much lower.
Ringworlds are not orbitally stable so they are firmly in the realm of sci fi.
Neither are Dyson spears
But itβs unstable.
If a civilization can figure out how to make one, they can keep it from sliding into the sun!
Like how if they figure out how to build an 833' long ship they can keep it from immediately hitting an iceberg and sinking?
Damn, imagine the number of lifeboats youβd need to evacuate a Dyson Sphere?
At least we know what the band will be playing
RTFA they are looking for swarms, rings, and other subtypes of Dyson Spheres.
I read the fucking article. What makes you fucking think I didn't?
The fact that you just reiterated one of its points.
Huh. So commenting on the content of the article means it wasn't read? That's a really odd position to take.
Easy there cowboy
