kj35 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I'm looking for a copy of Kardashev, Nikolai (1985). "On the Inevitability and the Possible Structures of Supercivilizations" The only e copy I can find is £42 . I'm rubbish at bypassing and getting these free download books but if one of guys and girls could help I would be enormously grateful.

lake Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 On the inevitability and the possible structures of supercivilizations Kardashev, N. S. Abstract Since civilizations face always problems that require continuously greater activity, it is likely that supercivilizations will undertake activities and construct structures of a very large scale. Properties and means of detections of such superstructures and activities are discussed. The author also examines six possible scenarios on the evolution of civilizations. Publication: IN: The search for extraterrestrial life: Recent developments; Proceedings of the Symposium, Boston, MA, June 18-21, 1984 (A86-38126 17-88). Dordrecht, D. Reidel Publishing Co., 1985, p. 497-504. Pub Date: 1985 Link to full article if that is what you wanted? http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/pdf/1985IAUS..112..497K 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
