Published on Sep 19, 2013 A Dyson Sphere is a megastructure that could be built around a star to harness all the solar energy it gives off.
In this video we talk about the different kinds of Dyson Spheres, Dyson Clouds and other megastructures that could be built -
and how we might even detect them from Earth.
Published on Oct 25, 2016 Tabby's star has provoked so much excitement, with speculation that it hosts a highly advanced civilization
capable of building orbiting megastructures to capture the star's energy, that UC Berkeley's Breakthrough Listen project
is devoting hours of time on the Green Bank radio telescope to see if they can detect any signals from intelligent extraterrestrials. Breakthrough Listen, which was created last year with $100 million in funding from the Breakthrough Prize Foundation and its founder,
internet investor Yuri Milner, won't be the first to search for intelligent life around this star.

#Aliens #Space #DysonSphere A group of researchers have identified at least seven stars that might be surrounded by advanced alien mega-structures known as "dyson spheres." NBC News' Ellison Barber speaks with Janna Levin, a professor of physics and astronomy at Barnard College, about the findings and whether the truth is out there. » Subscribe to NBC News: NBC News Digital is a collection of innovative and powerful news brands that deliver compelling, diverse and engaging news stories.

Are aliens building gigantic power plants in space that make entire stars "disappear"? Two studies find dozens of stars with such bizarre emissions that the researchers have come up with a bold hypothesis ... . Dyson spheres are used by higher civilizations to generate energy. These fantastic species can theoretically tap into the energy of the entire universe and thus secure infinite energy reserves. What happens when we find such spheres? Is this the first contact with civilizations that are far superior to us?
#dysonsphere #insanecuriosity #aliens Hey there, space enthusiasts and cosmic curiosity seekers! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to harness the power of an entire star? Well, buckle up, because we're about to dive into the mind-bending world of Dyson Spheres, and trust me, things are about to get wild. Imagine an alien civilization so advanced they built a gigantic structure that completely engulfs their star, capturing almost all of its energy. Sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi blockbuster, right? Back in 1960, a brilliant physicist named Freeman Dyson proposed this cosmic megastructure idea. Since then, it's been the stuff of both scientific inquiry and late-night sci-fi binges. But what if I told you that we might be on the verge of finding actual evidence of these colossal constructions? That's right, we're talking about potential alien technology on a scale that makes our most impressive feats look like sandcastles. Now, before you start packing your bags for an interstellar road trip, let's break down what's got the astronomy world buzzing. A team of skywatching sleuths has identified not one, not two, but seven stars within our cosmic neighborhood—well within 1,000 light-years, which is practically next door in space terms—that are behaving very, very strangely. These aren't just any stars; they're M dwarfs, the cosmic equivalent of fun-sized candy bars. They're glowing with an infrared intensity that's just unheard of by our standards. But wait, there's more! As if seven wasn't exciting enough, another group of stellar detectives has added 53 more stars to our "that's weird" list. We're talking about a total of 60 stars that are lighting up the infrared spectrum like cosmic Christmas trees. And get this: these stars range from little red dwarfs all the way up to stars that could be twins of our sun, scattered across a distance of up to 6,500 light-years. Now, you might be thinking, "Sure, but what's the big deal about some extra infrared glow?" Well, my curious friend, that glow could be the smoking gun we've been searching for in our quest to find advanced alien civilizations. You see, if a Dyson Sphere were capturing a star's energy, it would give off waste heat, and that heat would show up as, you guessed it, infrared radiation. Of course, the scientific community isn't breaking out the alien welcome banners just yet. These infrared anomalies could have other explanations, like cosmic dust bunnies or other astrophysical phenomena we're still trying to understand. But that's what makes this so exciting. We're standing on the precipice of potentially groundbreaking discoveries, peering into the unknown and asking questions that could reshape our understanding of the universe and our place in it. -- DISCUSSIONS & SOCIAL MEDIA E-mail:Commercial Purposes: Tik Tok: Reddit: Instagram: Twitter: Facebook: Linkedin: Our Website: -- Credits: Ron Miller, Mark A.
