Last time, we talked about a Type Q civilization under the Information Mastery Scale. Today, we will be looking at a Type R civilization and some of its defining characteristics!
According to Sagan, a Type R civilization is one that processes 10^23 unique bits of information. With its given information and energy content, this is the civilization that would have broken out of its galaxy and begun intergalactic travel. It may have even fully colonized a second nearby galaxy apart from its own. This would be possible because a Type R would have refined its warp drives to the point where they would be capable of traveling hundreds of times faster than the speed of light if not more. But of course, with such vast amounts of information availability, these types of feats would be well within the grasp of a Type R civilization.
