Summary

An illustration of simple Dyson Bubble:a simple arrangement of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/statite" class="extiw" title="en:statite">en:statites</a> around the sun, in a non-orbital pattern. NB that so long as a solar statite has an unobstructed line-of-sight to the sun, it can hover at any point in space in the local vicinity of the sun. This arrangement is only one of an infinite number of possible statite configurations, and is meant as a contrast for a Dyson Swarm only.

To scale.

Sun is accurately colored according to spectral type.

All statites are shown at a distance of 1 AU radius.

statites are 1.0 x 107 km in diameter, or ~25 times the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

Camera perspective is from a point 2 AU from the sun.
