"Dreams have a way of turning into nightmares" well isn't that the theme of my former marriage.

[@revan3841]

been there my friend

[@randybaumery-cp7tf]

AGREED!!!

[@ThorsDecree]

Yuuup

Glad you got out, bro.

@visions91 if I had been smart, I wouldn't have gotten involved in the first place.

I didn't expect anything written by Niven or even Hugo award quality, but I did expect the author to at least know what a Dyson sphere is. It's not just a big sphere in space, it's millions of miles in diameter.... Not some office building size, containment system or something that people can just run through.

[@jamesrogers1554]

Right? I got to the part where they said, “We have to find what is powering this place,” and I stopped listening. The author has no idea what a Dyson Sphere even is. The entire point of one is that it draws energy from the star it is constructed around. 🤦‍♂️

[@BudenniyS]

Did the protagonists seriously were looking for a power source of a dyson sphere? That would be the star.... Not to mention that even a tiny section of such object would be like a billion planets in area.. Did they go to the core of dyson sphere? Thets a bit of a hike...like a few AU... and again, you'll find a star, lol... I feel author didnt qite do the scale of the object justice...

[@xeanmartin6038]

I don't think the author understands what a dyson sphere is.

[@omaracevedo4784]

I was thinking the same thing. The writer made it sound as if it was some kind of a huge space station, not a planet size structure

[@dinosaur6756]

This is the plot of a Star Trek TNG episode. People would live on the interior surface of the sphere. It would be billions of times the surface area of a planet, so "exploring" it would be a slow process.

[@afterthefact6708]

So much livable area, more than all the planets in the star trek galaxy combined. The fact its never mentioned again is nuts.

[@randybaumery-cp7tf]

@@dinosaur6756 We were discussing that. Can you imagine if it's standard Earth orbit distance of 93,000,000 miles plugged into this A=4πr2? Imagine the interior area. Even in Larry Niven RINGWORLD, the living area was unreal!

[@Snapper314]

Nice story. But exploring a Dyson Sphere would be a HUGE task requiring Hundreds of people, if not Thousands or even Millions. Exploring a Dyson Sphere would also require craft capable of traveling within it at very high speed, to cover enough of a search area. Because a Dyson Sphere would have the habitable surface area THOUSANDS of times that of EARTH. Imagine trying to find a Central Control Room in all of London, or New York, or Tokyo. Now multiple that by 10,000!

[@PatrickZimmer]

Rather million times

[@afterthefact6708]

I think I remember the number 600 million times earths surface being bounced around. The scale is almost immpossible to hold in you head. 1 sphere would have more habitation space than that of the entire galaxy

[@arlesthegreat]

Yeah nah. You just drive up to it, find a door, and go inside, where you’ll immediately locate its ‘heart’. Totes accurate. lulz

[@creatureslim]

Drop someone in the middle of Texas and tell them to find a shed somewhere in Texas while on foot.

[@geoff7936]

You don’t so much “explore” a Dyson sphere as set up a multi generational civilisation and just like…live with/on/around it.

[@tahyang]

Author seems to be avoiding addressing the dyson sphere in the room. It's easy to see what kind of comments are getting attention though.

Whelp, I suppose I shouldn't have expected life-changing greatness from something that could be read in barely over half an hour... it's not great but it's not bad either. The Argo Squirrel Network really has spoiled me rotten. Pros: The core idea of a genuine Dyson Sphere being completely abandoned is an absolutely awesome idea and one you could do a lot with. Cons: Like literally everyone else has said, the title is misleading as what the characters explored was not a true Dyson Sphere. A true Dyson Sphere is impossibly huge, one with an Earth-like interior would have multiple oceans each bigger then our entire PLANET. It would have taken the four protagonists WEEKS to get anywhere on foot and the odds of finding anything specific by anything other then completely random chance would be impossible. The vast emptiness would have made for interesting cosmic or psychological horror, the characters struggling to grasp the sheer volume of the empty space they were exploring and they would constantly be wondering if the flickers of movement at the edge of their vision were a hallucination or not. It would be like the Backrooms except no suspension of disbelief or unexplained magical teleportation nonsense required. Instead, you made it a bland haunted space station held together by generic non-euclidean geometry and explored by four protagonists that barely had any personality beyond basic cliches. Dr. Warren, the glory-seeking scientist that cannot fully exist in reality because his egomania would make him an insufferable liability at best and anathema to the very nature of a scientist at worst, is the only one with any real personality. Ultimately, I'll listen to one or two more of your stories to see if this is a fluke but for this one it's "thanks for the idea if nothing else."

[@creatureslim]

I think most of the stories on here are good.

[@Metalhead4234]

The author of this story does NOT know what a dyson sphere is ("we gotta find a power source!") but the narration is top notch as always.

[@TRabbit1970]

A Dyson sphere is not solid, it’s hollow, with a Sun at its center. The inner surface of the sphere would be like the surface of a planet, smack in the middle of the Goldilocks zone for the output of the Sun.

[@leeroy117]

You did great narrating but this story isn't very good imo. It made more sense imagining an ancient space ship and not a dyson sphere.

[@ParryM1991]

Dyson sphere say with a radius equal to Jupiter average distance from Sun will be a trillion x trillion the surface area of Earth and probably I am underestimating . Mathematically it’s easy to calculate. All 8B humans exploring this dyson barefoot or even in the fastest plane ever built will take a few billion years to cover just a small part of it.

[@Kaiju-Driver]

What a cool use of the sphere!

[@abrahamblackmore3115]

It said shifting under the surface. Why couldn't it be a giant eldritch magma worm that lives in the heart of the star. The civilization could have built the Dyson sphere and pissed it off by draining the stars energy

[@GalacticHorrors]

@abrahamblackmore3115 An interesting and bizarre idea-I love it.

[@EZurg]

Before I hit play I have a feeling that this might not be very abandoned😮

[@michaelosuna1784]

The incredible luck they had finding a control center on a structure like a Dyson sphere that should have crushed them by gravity alone.

[@EdricLysharae]

Imagine encountering the remnants of a Dyson Swarm...

[@afterthefact6708]

A swarm is dramatically more plausible. Hell with the tech we have now we could make a swarm.

[@FrankGoossens-m8n]

A dyson sphere would generate such a massive gravitation, it crushes anything that gets too close

[@theterminaldave]

Though if you have the technology to actually build something like that, you might also have the ability to manipulate gravity.

[@FrankGoossens-m8n]

@@theterminaldave The builders, yes. Species that are far less developed could not and get crushed into a paste when getting to close

[@omlem8641]

Mindblowing! Deserving to be enlarged into a full-fledged novel or a high-budget movie. I can only imagine how cool it would look, but it will be challenging to make it look as it should in all its magnificence. Thank you again for such an imaginative story!

[@Administrator_O-5]

@@omlem8641 I'm not just saying this, because he's a friend, but the honest truth is all of his stories would make incredible sci-fi movies! They would also make for an awesome streaming series like the Twilight Zone or Outter Limits. Where each episode is a different sci-fi show based on each story. I would definitely pay for either or both. The content of these stories is unbelievably realistic, you can actually feel the emotions of the characters & sense of the environment as if you were there. The other Sci-fi themed channels on KZbin are great in their own way, but no one compares in content to this channel. Just my opinion, which means absolutely nothing.
