In a May 2023 study published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, scientists identified seven potential Dyson sphere candidates among 5 million stars, suggesting advanced alien mega-structures.
In a recent study, researchers identified seven potential Dyson sphere candidates among 5 million stars, suggesting advanced alien mega-structures. Freeman Dyson proposed these structures in 1960.
What would be the most effective way for a developed society to resolve its energy issues? According to renowned British-American physicist Freeman Dyson's theory, a star would be fully surrounded by a shell composed of mirrors or solar panels that would absorb all of the energy it produces.
In a 1960 study that introduced the idea, Dyson stated, "One should expect that, within a few thousand years of its entering the stage of industrial development, any intelligent species should be found occupying an artificial biosphere which surrounds its parent star."
It so...
