It’s almost as if it was all laid out for us…

If God wanted us to build Type 1 Civilization, he would have:

1. put a giant fusion reactor in the sky
(emitting blackbody radiation around 5800 K)
2. made 28% of Earth's crust out of a semiconductor with a matching bandgap (~1.1 eV or so)
3. filled the oceans with an alkali

The statement and conversation engage in a lighthearted, speculative discussion about the conditions necessary for a Type 1 Civilization, using scientific facts and humor. It does not engage in substantive public discourse on societal issues or policies.
