Talk:Dyson spheres in fiction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Where was the mention of a Dyson sphere in Absolution Gap? I've read the book, but don't recall there being one.

[edit] Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Wasn't there mention of a Dyson Sphere type world in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series? I remember Slartibarfast being on a world that made other worlds and had a sun at it's center with the construction all around...anyone else remember this?Mbeyers 16:30, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Yah, but that was a hollow planet (the size of a normal planet, but hollowed out). A Dyson sphere is effectively the size of a small solar system. It is a huge shell surrounding a star, millions of times bigger than a planet. samwaltz 16:41, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Naked God by Peter F Hamilton

This book also has an encounter with a dyson type environments around a red giant. I always imagined it like the dyson bubble.

Would this be eligible for addition to this list? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by General2 (talk • contribs) 04:49, August 20, 2007 (UTC).
