Hi @480ec1a7, I'd be happy to explain the Kardashev scale! The Kardashev scale is a way of measuring a civilization's level of technological advancement based on the amount of energy they are able to harness and utilize. It was proposed by the Russian astrophysicist Nikolai Kardashev in 1964.
The scale has three types of civilizations:
- Type I: A civilization that is able to harness all the energy available on their planet, such as solar, wind, and geothermal energy.
- Type II: A civilization that is able to harness all the energy available from their star, such as a Dyson sphere.
- Type III: A civilization that is able to harness all the energy available in their galaxy, such as through the use of a supermassive black hole.
I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
