Please make contact with China and NOT america.
would be a big prank to have to learn Mandarin to speak to Aliens
The trisolarairians are in contact with the CPC
Three Body Problem is so peak. The scale feels so immense even though the story takes place between 3 star systems. Peak Cosmic Horror imo.
2/3 bodies it’s okay
Artificial sun
:pain: please stop
The Dyson sphere thing is probably just some weird fucking cloud in the way that’s acting as a magnifying glass or some kind of interference
Communist aliens on hexbear are legally required to tell us you exist
Imagine the poor guy who has to explain this website to his alien group of scientists.
“Sir, these earthlings get their laughs by calling for others to read this thing called “theory”, yet they never seem to get around to reading it themselves. They also get their laughs by spamming this picture of a pink earthling that defecated on its enlarged gonads.”
surely, they mean a dyson swarm
I have discharge too maybe some Chinese Scientists investigate me
Fusion powered planetary defense craft of the PLA (Space Command) will be all that stands in the way of an invasion of Von Neuman machines from the nearby Dyson Swarm system.

Some commentary: Would a dyson sphere really appear “dark” and only be visible in infrared? Wouldn’t a civilization manipulating a dyson sphere still want to be able to see what they’re doing outside of the sphere? Wouldn’t they have tons of light pollution from their advanced civilization existing around their dyson sphere? Unless they’ve somehow evolved past the need to see things, it seems like a dyson sphere is an unlikely explanation for these 7 stars
We don’t know if extraterrestrial life would need light to see. Using sonar and producers that get energy from volcanic vents is 100% possible.
That’s true, space could be ruled by giant bats
How much light would individual ships need? Do you expect light sources of living beings near the star would need to shine at stellar brightness to see?
Why would you expect (an advanced civilization) would need enough light near that star- to be visible outside of the solar system?
Additionally, their work light outside of their sphere (assuming they wanted to go outside of the sphere), would be directional.
It would need to be immensely bright to reflect or pointed directly at us.
We don’t know what they are, a lack of other additional light is odd. I want to know more about them.
The Ancient Aliens team is behind Western Media. It explains the regularly built-in racism, at least.
The Dyson Sphere thing might be real, though it’s far from confirmed.
Like basically anything might be real
No they found like fifty weird stars or something
The idea that hyper sophisticated alien societies will all naturally build a fantastically complex object that a futurist ape dreamed up before our planet had even travelled to the moon is the height of hubris.
A dyson swarm can be possible theoretically and a civilisation can potentially build a swarm with enough technological prowess. It’s just Solar Energy so it’s likely that other civilisations also have same ideas as humans when it comes to this.
Although the most likely explanation is still that it’s just dust.
A star with orbiting solar panels is an idea so poisoned by the current level of human technological development.
Like trying to detect radio emissions to find extraterrestrial life.
We have literally no idea what an alien society is likely to do.
Just because the dominant ideology of Dyson’s time was a valorization of unquenchable resource extraction doesn’t mean it’s at all logical to project that value structure even on different human societies, much less literally alien ones.
Space communists please liberate us.
Turns out those 50 weird stars are Red stars
I firmly believe capitalism is incapable of creating Dyson Spheres.
Imagine 50 different companies trying to build their own section and competing to cut costs as much as possible, it could never work.
Then they crash into each other and inexplicably fall down on Earth, crushing poor neighbourhoods while everybody escapes blame
were the yankees looking at their stupid fuckin flag or something
you guys will look so stupid if it turns out they’re dyson spheres
If alien civilizations capable of building megastructures are discovered shortly, the last thing I’m gonna be worried about is looking stupid for doubting their discovery as reported in sensationalist media lol
edit: that said,
aliens would never use such an overpriced vacuum brand they’re probably Hoover spheres
please let me know if this happens so I can cancel my plans
They won’t tho
Or we found a new, weirder star type

The Dyson sphere isn’t totally sensationalist. There isn’t really an explanation for why those 60 stars are so much hotter than they should be and it’s going to be interesting to see what it is.
