Well the first paragraph of the article clearly states they disappeared somewhere within a 1 hour window, so a Dyson sphere being constructed in less than 1 hour isn't really a possibility.
- bell-cot 3y ago> a Dyson sphere being constructed in less than 1 hour isn't really a possibility. Sounds like someone needs to switch to fixed-price contracting for the Final Positioning and Assembly part of the job. Cost-plus for large but routine astrostructural projects is just begging for foot-draggers, expense-padders, and goldbrickers.
- takinola 3y agoTheoretically, the entire sphere does not need to be constructed in an hour. They just need to put in place the piece that blocks the light we see. Depending on how far away the star is, the speed of placing this block in place could be doable (at least within the context of a society sufficiently advanced to build a Dyson sphere in the first place)
