With that renewed bit of assurance that the idea might be plausible and save them the trouble of converting technology to make a whole new type of energy use feasible and reproducible on a species wide scale, Max got his team back to work on designing the Dyson Sphere, while Nico and her duo were busy researching new possible power sources.
The construction was a slow effort, and even the precision construction of the framework that would hold the actual device together was giving them issues. It had originally been designed to surround an actual star, and then it had been redesigned and miniaturized for use in a starship.
The one that Max had come across in his youth was a retired cargo freighter. By square feet, it would put some destroyers to shame, but it was almost entirely hollow.
