Just in time for Christmas: at least being in an unfashionable region of the Milky Way protects us from being jostled by the corpses of the civilizations that came before. (as yet non-peer reviewed)https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.07902

So if I am understanding the conclusions, they sort of agree with the scifi novel Toolmaker Koan by John McLoughlin http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/title.cgi?16357 …pic.twitter.com/1NYxihmY6K

I wonder if having access to the remains of an extinct civilization reduces or increases the risk of self extermination?

that is probably worthy of a graduate thesis. Or a scifi novel.

In my notes it’s called Wild Space, after this groovy map. But there’s already an old RPG supplement by that name. The game is supposed to feel like looking at a Jim Burns painting. Like Blake’s 7 had 21st c. costumes and sets and writers who had seen their own show.pic.twitter.com/pHP50vjASi
