The writing of the Kardashev-scale civilization (1) and their abilities
Above this text is the artist's impression of the hypothetical planet, which is locating in the solar system, where there are multiple stars. One of the planets is orbiting the center stars. Sometimes I wonder what human space technology would be looking like if Earth would be in this kind of solar system? What if Earth would be one of the moons, what would orbit the giant gas planet, or in the trajectory of Neptune would be a brown or red dwarf, what would have a small planetary system?
So the question is, what if at the place of planet Neptune would be Gliese 581? (2) The reason, why we have not created the antimatter or nuclear rockets is the lack of motivation. We don't have a single interesting target for space trips, and that's why developing that kind of thing is not in the primary role in the budgets of the space agencies. And also sometimes I have wondered, what kind of civilization we would have if we would live in the solar system, where is another intelligent species?
The thing about the limitations that the COVID-19 pandemics should cause is that we should create also something more productive for the peacekeeping process than nuclear weapons. Sometimes we are thinking that the Kardashev scale I civilization, what can travel in their solar system is some kind of thing, which is far away from here. But the thing is that the things, that civilization has able to make at a certain level are turning routine only at the next level.
The scale 1 civilization: Can make experimental travel in their solar system, but the routine traveling is possible only at their home planet.
The scale 2 civilization: Can send unmanned probes to other solar systems, and travel inside their solar is routine.
The scale 3 civilization: Traveling to closest stars is routine, but can make experimental flights and send probes to the more distant stars. The original solar system, where those creatures have left has turned to only one solar system in the group of other solar systems.
So if we are thinking that Kardashev-scale 1 civilization can travel in the own solar system, that means that this kind of civilization can make the experimental journeys in their solar system, but the routine traveling is possible only on their planet. The Karadashev scale Type 2 civilization could make routine missions in their solar system, and send unmanned probes to their closest stars.
