ROBOTS!! You saw this coming, right? Right? Please tell me you didn't strut over here, in this sci-fi/Marvel/video game/science nerd wonderland, without anticipating robots or some major machine influence.

There's no robot takeover or anything, the laws put into place after Ultron's reign in the 2700s ensured that... but nothing from the past truly stays dead.

Weapons

I'll come back to this later.

Megastructures

Solarfuse

The Solarfuse is a Dyson swarm orbiting and harvesting the energy of Surya. It's the primary source of power for Earthlings, aside from nuclear power, and is what defines Earth as a type II civilization. Its creation in the mid-2500s kickstarted an era known as the Astro-Nuclear Age.

Artificial Planets

The concept of an manmade planet appeared after the culmination of the Solarfuse in the 2600s, during a time of sung praises and high hopes. The people yearned to go bigger. WIP.

Trivia

  • Despite those in power wishing to salvage the oil, fossil fuel, and coal industries, they ultimately agreed to quit hindering the Solarfuse's construction in response to a string of murders specifically targeting high-ranking officials.
