Kardashev Scale Wiki



Welcome to the Kardashev Scale Wiki
The Kardashev scale is a method of measuring a civilization's level of technological advancement, based on the amount of energy a civilization is able to use for communication. The scale is hypothetical and regards energy consumption on a cosmic scale. It was proposed in 1964 by the Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev.

The purpose of this wiki is to include an exhaustive list of existing and fictional civilizations with an attempt to classify their types, possible technologies, energy usage, longevity, possibility of extinction, and so on. This is an initiative of the "Kardashev Scale Theory Facebook Group".
