it will probably take forever to just colonize our solar system. Probably quadrillions of people fit into just this solar system. --- . ... Copied to Clipboard!

there are those chinese sci-fi stories posted online that have a single city that span across entire galaxies. crazy stuff forgot the name of the genre but the protags usually live trillions of trillions of years and can bust trillions of trillions of universes or whatever. --- I'm a Taurus I like collecting headphones and iems.

I think this is why I like the Alien (original ones anyway) so much. Like space feels like this huge and incomprehensible thing. We get a small interaction with it and suffer the consequences. Most sci-fi stories just sorta act like space is a bigger version of Earth with different looking humanoids that come from planets that function more like countries. Basically basing the entirety of space on Earth politics, colonization and history. --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!

The planet Earth is on the outer rim of the Milky Way galaxy. The closest star, Alpha Centauri, is 3.5 light years away. We are isolated If you go closer to the center of the Milky Way, the star systems are very close to each other, so having an empire that spans star systems is very believable ... Copied to Clipboard!

One of the reasons I like Mass Effect is the way it blends a "young" space-faring civilization (Earth) into a larger, pre-established galactic society. You sort of have these "hubs" of development and urbanization, but there's still plenty of un-tamed locations where humanity is still trying to stake its claim. --- https://imgur.com/dAri4ON ...

@xue1 the thing about that is when everything is close together, life destroying phenomena, like supernova, and emissions from pulsars would prevent intelligent life from developing. --- Vegy is a 30 year old man, who's pretending to be a 60 year old woman that likes to act like a 57 year old man that pretends to be a horny 16 year old boy. ...

xue1 posted... The closest star, Alpha Centauri, is 3.5 light years away. We are isolatedMore specifically, Proxima Centauri (Alpha Centauri C), at a bit over 4 light years away. It is getting closer, but it will still be a stupidly long way away at its closest point. --- You're so vain, You probably think this sig is about you. ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] It would probably have to be a form of government totally alien to us in the 21st Century. Probably AIs will do all the administration and governing, for immortal AIs such big distances might not matter much. --- . ... Copied to Clipboard!
