As far as I know we’re the only aliens around.

Even ringworld would take an absurd amount of mass. Hey! Maybe they could use up some of that dark matter. :)

Read “The Time Ships” by Stephen Baxter. Its Hard Science Fiction and “part 2” of the Time Machine (blessed by the Wells family). Its right up this alley.

Only a ‘Q’ could move stars around.


I moved a couple stars around only this morning.

Well, we will all find out the answers when we “shuffle off this mortal coil” and meet our maker.

I hope our tax dollars aren’t being wasted on this. $21 trillion . . . . .

Ringworld was sort of soft scifi. He literally created the “Big Dumb Object” that gave scientists and MIT students frets.

His “Motie” works and other CoDominium stuff was much more solid on science.

I know it wasn’t perfectly hard science, but could you imagine a cable of Neutronium 1 neutron wide? I wish I could get it on a chefs knife edge. What to use as a cutting board OTOH would be an issue.
