This kind of statement rings hollow as long as they keep building the thing. If they really believed it was a species killing asteroid of a cultural project shouldn't they, I dunno, stop contributing materially to it? Nuclear physicist

The staying power makes me feel kind of sad, because it represents a lack of vitality... they've cleared the local space, like some sort of planetoid, and newcomers have little chance.
