Was made aware of the #tech bro talk about #DysonSpheres in connection w/ the #SpaceX IPO ystdy via @keubiko.bsky.social & @peark.es, w/ a hint at this very funny video by @acollierastro.bsky.social in the reply threads.

#DysonSpheres

Did astronomers see alien Dyson spheres? Dyson spheres are still a hypothetical technology but a recent study highlights where they may lurk in the universe

Is there any evidence of #DysonSpheres in the “nearby” space around us?

Think you know your #Dysonspheres from your dark #blobs? This #cosmic #crossword dives into the strangest #structures ever spotted — or imagined — in the #universe.

This is a really fascinating paper on a systematic search for #DysonSpheres using the large galaxy survey data thats available. The results are very interesting indeed. #Astronomy No it's not proof of advanced Alien civilisations. But it looks like a neat bit of survey work at least to these […]

A bright light at the center of a bunch of differently oriented rings in starry space.

#Dysonspheres are a popular device in science fiction: huge, orbiting, energy-collecting systems, capable of powering worlds. Now, professor of engineering science Colin R. McInnes says such structures can be stable in a 2-star system. 🌌🔭

Alien Dyson spheres could really exist — but only in this 1 type of star system, new study hints Is it possible to build a Dyson sphere that isn't catastrophically unstable? New research says yes, but only in one type of star system.

Guess who’s also on #BlueSky?! Yes, the #ASP's CEO Dr @hmoluseyi.bsky.social! #DYK his recent appearance on #StarTalk, hosted by Dr @neildegrassetyson.com, is now available for everyone to watch on YouTube? They discuss #DysonSpheres and “now” is just an illusion. 🔭

A view of a ringworld. We see the ring stretching up and away into the sky. with an ocean, coast, tree and hils in the foreground. The ring curves up and away into the distance becoming gradually obscured by clouds and the atmosphere.
