Solar megastructure Dyson swarm could overheat Earth by 252°F, kill all life: Study
These structures would likely rely on photovoltaic technology to convert solar radiation into usable energy.
As civilizations progress technologically, their energy demands inevitably skyrocket. To meet such escalating power needs, one theoretical solution involves surrounding a star with an array of solar-collecting satellites—a concept known as a Dyson swarm.
While this idea remains purely speculative, recent research has examined the potential consequences such a structure could have on planetary environments, particularly Earth’s climate.
