Type III

A Type III civilization extracts fusion and exotic energy, information, and raw-materials from their galaxy. It is capable of intergalactic travel via wormholes, intergalactic communication via subspace, galactic engineering and galaxy-scale influence.

This is the final type of civilization in the original proposal of the Kardashev Scale.

Detail
Energy usage: 1036 W to 1046 W. Total usage is the same as Type II multiplied across galaxies. In addition: collecting matter propelling outwards from white holes, tapping into cosmic events like magnetars which release around 1037W, supernovas which release around 1044W and hypernovas which release around 1045W.

Scale: Dyson Sphere around every star in the galaxy, or harvesting exotics from neutron stars and magnetars.

Estimated Population: 1 nonillion (1030) people

Existence is in 5d (awareness of 6d) and 1r (reality)

Travel: Intergalactic through space lanes or artificial wormhole nexus networks or stargates.

State of form: eventually projected energy and transcendentalism

WMD scale: interphased bomb

Longevity: 500 - 1000

Sprawl: dark space, trans-galactic

Social issues: Gaia planetary transformation, weaponized megastructure, Xeno dark side, Photonic AI, socio-cultural benevolence and sophonce, interspecies philosophy

Industrial revolutions: Matter replication

Arguments:


 * Photonic AI
 * Augmented evolution and transapience
 * dominant proliferation: Nietzcheans or genetic superiority
 * Social weakening: over exposure of dream twister (solution – molecular control/4d phasing to counter manifestations or psychological spirals via time internal communication or inner thoughts)

Social dream: Mantle of responsibility (self assumed stewardship over the balance of galactic power)

Class system: Emotive quality as a social lynchpin to reconsolidate group cooperation over an increasingly independent population
