Previously, we talked about a Type T civilization under the Information Mastery Scale. Today, we will be looking at a Type U civilization and some of its defining characteristics!
According to Sagan, a Type U civilization is one that processes 10^26 unique bits of information. Having such an immense amount of information and energy content available at its fingertips, this type of civilization would have figured out how to open and stabilize wormholes! Perhaps by suppressing quantum fluctuations, a Type U would have discovered or invented some kind of exotic matter, which experiences gravity as a repulsive force rather than attractive, allowing for the stabilization of wormholes. Now, using this, the inhabitants of this civilization may even create jump drives, which could tear open ship-sized wormholes connecting any two points in the universe, allowing near-instantaneous travel. This would allow a civilization of this caliber to colonize and control its entire supercluster! Which means, it would have expanded to over 100,000 galaxies or 200,000,000 light-years in diameter! Now, that would be an incredible feat, to say the least.
