How to make a Dyson sphere SIMPLIFIED

-

Building a Dyson sphere is something that any planet will need to start interstellar travel. For now we’re apparently the only life in the universe and if we want to grow this is a must.

Now let’s talk about Dyson spheres. A Dyson sphere is meant to take all the energy from the sun and then shoot jets of it to other planets. 


I’m going to sort this into 3 categories. Materials, design and energy.


Design 


A rigid body covering the sun wouldn’t be the best idea. Then if a small asteroid crashes the entire thing comes down. A better idea could be a Dyson swarm. A Dyson swarm is a just a ton of satellites orbiting the sun. We will just have to start with 1 satellite and then double that around 60 times. I doubled all the way up to a billion and that was only around doubling 1, 20 times.


Construction 


Our construction has to be on a nearby planet. Mercury should be the best option. We’ll need lots of metal so you can guess why I’m choosing this place. We will need an extreme amount of energy to get the to mercury and even more to launch this swarm into place. Let’s just that our kind already fixed this. To launch the swarm of satellites we can make a kind of tube that uses electromagnetic materials to power it. The structure will shoot satellites into orbit which will surround the sun. This is where the planet that we chose comes in handy. Mercury has little gravity and is the closest to the sun so it’s the best place to launch our satellites.


Energy


One  satellite gives the power to launch another and this process keeps on going on and on until… we have finished the Dyson swarm. This will basically give us infinite amounts of energy. It could even be the start of a interstellar civilisation.


Thanks for reading this article. Part two will be coming soon and as soon as it’s ready I’ll post it.

About me and my family

My name is Theertha and I am 8 years old. My little brother’s name is Chris and he is 3 months old. My favourite board games are scrabble (original) monopoly and snakes and ladders. I live in Craigieburn Australia and I live with my aunty, my dad, my mum, my little brother, (as previously mentioned) and my grandma. Sometimes my aunty comes to our house. I was born in Sri Lanka. It is a tiny island near India which had the same population as Australia. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. It was quite crowded in the tiny little country. My favourite foods are Domino’s oven baked chips and my mum’s cooking. When I grow up I want to have a part time job of being a blogger and I will have a trillion degrees. I also want to be the world’s richest person. I love to play with my little brother a lot. I like school I am in grade 3 & my favourite colour is golden.

Human body cells

Hello, my blog viewers. Today we are going to learn about the tiny building blocks that make up us and other animals. Can you guess what it is? It’s cells! The cell is made out of different parts.  Let’s look at them now.  If you were shrunk to a  size that lets you fit through the cell and you found one, the first thing you would see is the cells outer shell. We call it the cell membrane. The cell membrane only lets specific things in. If you could somehow get in, you would see the different parts of the cell.  The different parts of the cell are called organelles. The organelles that you would see are the Nucleus, some Mitochondria, the Endoplasmic reticulum, some Lysosomes and the Golgi apparatus, but when you walk you will realise that there is one more part, and it is the most important. It’s the Cytoplasm! It provides a surface for the organelles to live on. Let’s learn more about the organelles.  The Nucleus decides and controls most of the functions going on in the cell

Black holes | Why are they so important? |

  Black holes are one of the marvels in the universe. There are so many of them and we barely know anything about them. In this article I’ll tell you about them.  If you don’t know what a black hole is black holes are  things that can suck up planets or even stars! There are different types. Supermassive, spinning or maybe just a normal one. Structure A black holes structure is quite unique. There are spinning black holes and non spinning black holes. There are also supermassive black holes. In normal black holes there is a disc around it called an accretion disc. Near that we have the event horizon. In the middle there is a single point with an infinitely small length but contains the entire mass of the black hole. For spinning black holes there’s a accretion disc and also an ergo sphere. An ergo sphere is the place where time is half broken but in the event horizon time is completely broken. For spinning black holes you can create a black hole bomb. But I’ll tell you about that anoth
