Well, I guess that fit the definition of "Slow God"
I always wondered if the others archai consider them as the equivalent of "hippies"
Quote:Have you estimated how much energy would be needed to accelerate an appropriate share of the mass needed for construction and how much mass and energy might be provided by nearby systems? I’m wondering how much overhead would be required, in addition to that directly involved. (Construction of appropriate accelerating structures, the construction bots, mining to build the latter, etc.)
If a grazer is infolved then we have only to spend the energy to accelerate one of its mouth, right?
Is that possible for an inflated mouth or not?
If we want to accelerate this thing to 10%c then the whole thing could soon or later belong among the transgalactic traveling megastructures (e.g. the Leviathan)?
Maybe it could be inspired by those in purpose?
