The nuclear spike deterrent field has been a favorite of mine
This one looks cool, and I think that’s its biggest problem. It’s clearly a massive, man-made structure with no obvious purpose, yet with striking visual impact. To the hypothetical future civilization that is unaware of the dangerous nuclear waste, it basically begs to be investigated.
Probably something religious.
His Glow will spread!
Yeah because desecrating religious sanctuaries has stopped humanity thus wait
Oh, I meant it more in the sense how archeologists/historians often say something was used for some religious or ritual purposes when they can't come up with a better explanation. See for example Stonehenge or roman dodecahedrons. There was also the idea for an atomic priesthood which would be charged with keeping the knowledge about nuclear waste sites.
Some real Hyperion Shit going on here. Anyone from the web should prolly move on...😳
