  • A cosmologist suggests we should look for exploration, along with energy signatures, to try and find aliens. Dyson spheres of some kind may be built to harvest energy from dark matter in black holes. Exploration and Dyson black holes both give researchers more things to look for in the universe.

The article from Popular Mechanics discusses the concept of Dyson spheres, theoretical megastructures that advanced civilizations might build to harness the energy of their stars. It explores how astronomers are searching for these structures by looking for specific light patterns or "technosignatures" that would indicate their presence. Recent studies have focused on analyzing data from the Gaia satellite to detect anomalies in starlight that could suggest the existence of partial Dyson spheres or swarms. Despite the intriguing possibilities, no definitive evidence of Dyson spheres has been found yet, but the search continues with advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to sift through vast amounts of astronomical data for these elusive signs of extraterrestrial engineering.
