Previously, we talked about a Type G civilization under the Information Mastery Scale. Today, we will be looking at a Type H civilization and some of its defining characteristics!
According to Sagan, a Type H civilization is one that processes 10^13 unique bits of information. Such a civilization would be capable of not only mastering ground-based travel but also achieving and mastering air travel within its home planet. Chemical propulsion rocket systems would also be within the reach of a Type H civilization. Using these methods, it could even travel to its home planet’s natural satellites, if the planet had any, similar to our civilization of the recent past. Also, launching satellites into orbit would be quite common which could give rise to Global Positioning Systems. Moreover, building space stations and setting them into orbit around its home planet is also something this type of civilization can manage. In other words, this civilization is one that could launch itself into space using rocket technology.
