""Alien Megastructures"" explores the captivating search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) by examining the potential for detecting advanced alien civilizations through ""technosignatures"" – large-scale alterations to their environments. It delves into the intriguing possibility of Dyson spheres, hypothetical megastructures built around stars to harness their energy, and analyzes anomalous space signals that might indicate extraterrestrial activity. The book highlights that even without direct communication, the ""footprints"" of alien engineering could be detectable across interstellar distances. The book presents a multidisciplinary approach, combining astrophysics, engineering, and computer science to assess the feasibility of detecting these megastructures and interpreting complex signals. It investigates the scientific principles behind star-sized engineering projects, like Dyson spheres and the challenges of distinguishing between natural phenomena and genuine signs of alien activity, such as the famous Wow! signal. It progresses from the Drake Equation and Fermi Paradox to detailed analyses of potential megastructures and concludes with a discussion of the broader implications of such a discovery. This book stands out by providing a balanced and critical view of the evidence, emphasizing scientific rigor and avoiding sensationalism. It equips readers with the tools to evaluate claims about alien megastructures and signals, offering an engaging and informative journey into the quest to answer whether we are alone in the universe.

This book explores the shared qualities of mountains as naturally-formed landscapes, and of megastructures as manmade landscapes, seeking to unravel how each can be understood as an open system of complex network relationships (human, natural and artificial). By looking at mountains and megastructures in an interchangeable way, the book negotiates the fixed boundaries of natural and artificial worlds, to suggest a more complex relationship between landscape and architecture. It suggests an ecological understanding of the interconnectedness of architecture and landscape, and an entangled network of relations. Urban, colonialist, fictional, rural and historical landscapes are interwoven into this fabric that also involves discontinuities, tensions and conflicts as parts of a system that is never linear, but rather fluid and organic as driven by human endeavor.

There will be 8.3 billion human beings on Earth by 2030, and the more the better. We have the opportunity to create a world of expansive megacities - including one around old London. Doing so will advance the art, science and processes of manufacturing. But to deploy those abilities we must shrug off the dogma of sustainability that insists only small can be beautiful. Humanity has come a long way since the first modular mega-structure was built at Ur, on land that is now Iraq. There, four millennia ago, and by hand, the Sumerians built a mud-brick ziggurat to their Gods. Today, the green deities of Nature we have invented for ourselves are worshipped with humility. Eco-zealots argue against the mechanised megaforming of landscape and the modularised production of megastructures. The guest editors, Jonathan Schwinge and Ian Abley of the London based research organisation audacity, call for development on a bold scale. They argue that by rapidly super-sizing the built environment society is not made vulnerable to natural or man-made hazards, and that design innovation surpasses bio-mimicry. Designers can learn from materials scientists working at the smallest of scales, and from systems manufacturers with ambitions at the largest. This issue calls for creative thinking about typologies and topologies, and considers what that also means for Africa, China, and Russia. Megacities everywhere demand integration of global systems of transport, utilities and IT in gigantic structures, constantly upgraded, scraping both the sky and the ground, outward into the sea.
