Hold up! Isn't a Dyson sphere pretty low maintenance once it's built?

    I guess it would depend on the temperature resistance and how the power is transmitted. Even solar panels wear out, and the collection surfaces of a dyson sphere would be a lot higher temp. But with something that scale, I'd imagine it would be a ton of maintenance work even if was a tiny amount per area.
