Matrioshka Brain

A Matrioshka Brain is a hypothetical, enormous computational system built by harnessing the energy output of a star like our Sun. Imagine stacking multiple layers of highly advanced, energy-absorbing structures—similar to Russian nesting dolls—around the star to maximize its energy use. These layers would power vast computers capable of performing simulations or processing enormous amounts of data. Such a construct would enable superintelligent civilizations to run complex computations, research, or even simulate entire universes. It’s a theoretical concept demonstrating how advanced civilizations might utilize stellar energy to achieve extraordinary computational abilities.
