loving the game, but quick question:
So i get the idea of the sphere getting energy from a star. Then you've got the idea of beaming the power back in a laser. Is this a real proposed thing with theoretical or real science on the process or is this pure sci fi?
If it is real, what kind of efficiency are we talking with that transmission?

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

How on Earth did this end up in PC Gaming? In any case it's mostly a SciFi thought experiment. It's theoretically possible, but far far far beyond our current capabilities.

Dyson Space Program - It's in the game (EA Sports)

It's a game and a damn good one.

Dyson Sphere Program? Can't find a Dyson Space Program, but it looks nice indeed.

You are correct, Sphere it is

Don't know what you mean, It said sphere the whole time... 👀
