I have noticed a curious upsurge in ideas that involve a little bit of science, some futuristic stuff with a heavy dollop of science fiction ideas that are framed within libertarian or right winged political ideology. Social media has had a big growth in this sort of silliness. I suppose maybe those on the conservative political spectrum with little stomach for the religious right or Christian nationalism are voicing their ideas more and more.

If one goes by why would our kiddies' built it, I'd go with the speculation of yes more room for humans, fauna and flora, yes,, an energy catcher, solar, but also I will throw in the a Dyson sphere as a resurrection machine. It'd take lots and lots of electrical power! Yeah this again.

I am betting we now would have trouble identifying a sphere. We are just getting good at the telescope engineering, and we have not even built a telescope farm on the Lunar far side yet! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
