I do like the idea of artifacts of a vastly superior race being stumbled across. Someone at Frontier should give Larry Niven a free account, and induce him to toss a Ringworld out there waiting to be found.

Just for you buddy look what I found at a USS AND Polaris is listed as a system requiring its own permit and we all know what went down there ;)

Found a Dyson sphere!!

Wikipedia describes a Dyson sphere is a hypothetical megastructure that completely encompasses a star and hence captures most or all of its power output.

When I get back and sell my Cartographic data I think I'm gonna clean up with this one!!

But seriously, would be a nice addition to the game. Maybe the Thargoid home system is powered by one. :)

It's a nice idea, perhaps some ancient race decided to make them a 'folly'. The energy and materials to make one, would require a level of technology so advanced that the need for one would be irrelevant.

Reminds me of those $500 lottery tickets. If I could afford one, I wouldn't need it.

On A.D. 3011 dyson hoovers became self aware started their own colony, they supplied the best carpet cleaning service for space ships in the galaxy, any hoover that could no longer do its job was labelled as 'unclean'.

Saw ages ago an episode of Andromeda with an alien race and a Dyson sphere.... It was supposed to be the ultimate threat

You really got my hopes up.
It would be so great to have stuff like that in the game.

Are Dyson Spheres pressurised or are they open to vacuum?
