Last time, we talked about a Type W civilization under the Information Mastery Scale. Today, we will be looking at a Type X civilization and some of its defining characteristics!
According to Sagan, a Type X civilization is one that processes 10^29 unique bits of information. Having this much information and energy content, this civilization would have very little left to uncover in its universe. It would possess knowledge of things such as the origins of life and the ultimate fate of its universe along with all the other technology to manipulate the very fabric of its space-time continuum similar to a Type W. The inhabitants of this civilization may also be very close to cracking the code of dark energy and other hidden mysteries of the universe. With such extensive knowledge and technology, a Type X civilization would have colonized about 50 billion light-years across which would be about half of its visible universe!
