Does this mean we get to bear witness to the firepower of this fully functioning battle station? @Lanzman, would this be an acceptable alternative to asteroid attracting artifacts?
Don't some stars decay into a big cold hunk of iron? Maybe it's a star corpse sucked into another solar system.
Yeah but that's thought to be theoretical, as there hasn't been enough time in the universe for any to actually exist yet. This is exciting enough. The link doesn't mention it, but the required collision speed would have been 75 km/s. That's FAST. Mercury orbits the sun at 47 km/s.
