  • A new paper by Gabriella Contardo and David W. Hogg, reveals a large-scale search combining observations from ESA Gaia DR3, 2MASS, and NASA WISE, leading to the identification of 53 unique objects with significant mid-infrared excesses, potentially indicative of Dyson Spheres or Alien megastructures.
    ‘Dyson spheres’ were theorized as a way to detect alien life. Scientists say they’ve found potential evidence

      ​@@deker0954 “the paper … says don't know” - No paper said "now we know for sure" ever, despite the impression that the news creates. It's never black or white, either. We've learned that there exists something that we don't know how to explain. Surely we've learned something new, but do we _don't know_ more or less?
      The most "observational" papers aren't about new observations at all; they instead scavenge the immense datasets that we've been gathering for decades.
      It's always at the edge. GRBs are a fitting example. Do you know how many γ-photons are registered during a short GRB? Sometimes as few as 5-7. But they tightly fit the GRB light curve, and the curve itself is known from hundreds of accumulated observations and the discovery of patterns in data. If we hadn't recorded the energy, detector orientation and the precise time of arrival of every detected γ-particle for years, we mightn't have even known about the true number of observed GRBs, we wouldn't firmly establish that there are distinct patterns of short and long GRBs, etc. A few ultra-luminous events detected by the Vela satellites out of sheer luck were the first “we have no idea except something is certainly going on” of the GRB study. Then we started collecting the data, photon by photon. 50+ years later, we know much more about their sources but also appreciate how much we really don't know about them... You don't read about this painstaking data digging in the news.
      The biased expectation from a paper imparted by the press is that it ought to be about some huge discovery. But with a more cautious eye, what they do is take a paper and hype it until it no longer makes any sense. Better be listening in awe how we extract data from deafening noise, tiny drop by tiny drop, till the bucket finally overflow, even if it's not aliens in the end. This is how real science is made.

      the problem i have with dyson spheres is that a civilization that can build such a massive structure already probably knows how to produce fusion energy.. it would be much more efficient to build many small fusion reactors than envelope a star with some primitive "solar cells" or whatever they would use for photons when you can go straight to the source of the power.

      The base assumption is that you could block out most of the light with the collectors but eventually you suffer from the law of diminishing returns so at some point theyd stop going for 100%. But assuming that they did, they still wouldnt contain all the waste heat because theres really nothing you can do with it. The infrared would say theres a star there, but we'd be getting very little light, and that's what makes a candidate.

    I know people have been enamored by the idea of Dyson Spheres, but it seems to me that any civilization advanced enough to do it, would not. Has anyone thought through the amount of mass it would require? More than is found in most solar systems. Look at how many planets will fit into our sun for instance. I would think that a civilization that advanced would have much smaller and more exotic energy sources.

      ​@@EventHorizonShow Hello, John! In light of new methods and technology, it is expected to discover new natural and strange phenomena. However, it's VERY fascinating that a few red dwarfs exhibited infrared radiation up to 60 times (!) brighter than expected for stars of their type and age. Maybe I missed it (because I also love to listen to this before sleep), but the exact factor of excess infrared radiation for "her stars" wasn't specified by Dr. Gabriella Contardo. I think this factor of excess would really make a big difference in assigning a probability of technosignatures.

      @JohnMichaelGodier 3 месяца назад +1

      @@LemonsAndSalt69 That depends on where you get your definition of a Dyson sphere from. If you get it from science fiction, the big solid shell encasing a star, then that's actually termed a Stapledon-Dyson sphere, but Dyson himself said it shouldn't be called that, because it's actually a Stapledon-Kardashev shell and Dyson believed them to be mechanically impossible (but he did calculate the mass needed, and it's 1 Jupiter mass. Anyone that says we don't have enough mass is wrong. We do. It's just the wrong material). If you get your definition from Dyson's paper, then spotting one is really easy. All you need is a pair of binoculars. Starlink is a spherical shell of satellites orbiting a gravitational body serving as solar energy collectors. They are not in orbit of the sun directly, but we can do that too. All of our defunct and active solar orbit probes already constitute a Dyson swarm, albeit one in its very first stages. So if you take it from what Dyson actually suggested, then a Dyson sphere as he very vaguely defined it is inevitable for a space faring species. It's not merely astronomy, we already have one, and the big one around earth is doing a number on astronomical observations. You want astronomy, ask any astronomer what they think of Star Link and see what they say about Elon's very bright Dyson swarm that's exceeded over 5000 satellite at this point all criss crossing through the astronomical photography.
      In short, thanks Star Trek the Next Generation for getting everyone thinking Dyson's concept was something it wasn't. They literally depicted the one thing Dyson said in the original paper probably wasn't possible to do with the concept.

    Soon we found our conversation drift to the orbits of the planets in our solar system, and then on to the path of the sun through the Milky Way. I’m getting somewhere lol.
    I have an honest question regarding Debis Disks. With the sun streaking through the galaxy, and the objects in our solar system orbiting the sun, not like a disk but kinda like tentacles of a jelly fish (you get my analogy 😉), would a debris “disk” look more like the tail of a comet or the like?

      We don't need to have JWST to look for Dyson spheres. Any telescope that can watch a star and measure light anomalies, could find one. Of course Dyson spheres are so ridiculously over the top and unnecessary for an advanced civilization -- of course, we've observed nothing of the kind.

    • @JohnMichaelGodier
      @JohnMichaelGodier 3 месяца назад +3

      JWST already has. It made three observations of the type F star KIC 8462852 last summer. That specific star, colloquially known as Tabby's Star, initially got attention because it looked like a partial Dyson sphere. That's no longer on the table because they were able determine that the material in orbit of the star is particulate and not structures of any large size in a swarm or Arnold configuration. The trouble is, and why the JWST observation was made, is that no natural explanation currently fits either because there is no infrared excess which is demanded of materials in orbit of a star by the laws of thermodynamics. JWST is an infrared telescope, far more sensitive than the previous telescope used, so perhaps it can resolve the discrepancy, but the paper reporting the results is not out yet.

      @@JohnMichaelGodier Thanks for the detailed response! I do recall this happening with KIC 8462852. Hopefully we can gain some additional knowledge by observing these other 53 or so objects and getting some indication of whether we've found a pattern suggesting something mundane...or something rather exotic. 53 out of millions observed is a rather low percentage.

    The more i think about it, the more the concept of Dyson spheres sounds ridiculous. For one, what kind of material do you build with? We can only build so high before the sheer weight of a building crushes itself. To make a Dyson sphere would be like making a planet from scratch in terms of resource demand. Even if you use a red drawf, thats alot of materials you would have to construct while being blasted with radiation the whole time. And then, logically, how to do start the project? If you start on one side, gravity will tug it into the host star. You would have to continuously use vast amounts of resources to hold the pieces in place as the entirety is built. Youre not just putting that much mass together in a partial ring with a stable orbit to keep it in place while the rest gets built. Gravity alone would ruin the project.

      Not to mention, this is all dependent on an advances species coming to the conclusion that it wont live a sustainable existance and will only consume and consume ane consume until theres nothing left.
      What would be so intelligent about doing that?
      I think the logical way forward is to stay as a humble species. Do away with technology and all our excess and greed and become a humble and modest people.
      I think if we continue on this path, we will become the very predatory species we fear might be listening in on our radio signals or whatever. Theres a line somewhere rhat if crossed, ive no doubt that we will become a predatory species that kills and enslaves every other advanced species we encounter.

      That's what's great about it, or the universe. There's a lot of possibilities for theoretical existence like location, size, shape, or even if we are able to distinguish it as technology, as we see technology now. It just as might be so advanced, that it doesn't look like or emit anything close to what we'd call technology. Alien design is something truly unfathomable to us. There might be something out there, or might have been, or will be - but we can't assume that we'd even recognize it.
