Astroengineering is the construction of megastructures in space by technologically advanced beings. It is a form of megascale engineering, but deals with structures that are "easily observable" from interstellar or even intergalactic distances with 20th century astronomical instruments: i.e. An orbital elevator is an example of megascale engineering, but it is not an example of astroengineering. Typically proposed feats of astroengineering are on the scale to remake an entire stellar system.

  • Astroengineering is the construction of megastructures in space by technologically advanced beings. It is a form of megascale engineering, but deals with structures that are "easily observable" from interstellar or even intergalactic distances with 20th century astronomical instruments: i.e. An orbital elevator is an example of megascale engineering, but it is not an example of astroengineering. Typically proposed feats of astroengineering are on the scale to remake an entire stellar system. Typical megastructures that would be produced by this activity could be, Dyson Spheres, Ringworlds, Alderson disks, internally powered Matrioshka brains based on Dyson Sphere technology, Stellar engines such as Shkadov thrusters, and other artifacts produced by Type II and Type III civilizations on the Kardashev scale. In a 2005 paper, Luc Arnold proposed a means of detecting smaller, though still megascale, artefacts from their distinctive light curve signature.
  • Астроинжене́рные сооруже́ния — гипотетические инженерные сооружения астрономических масштабов. Как правило в такую категорию включают искусственные объекты размерами в десятки тысяч километров и более. Астроинженерные сооружения представляют интерес как проекты освоения космоса, как примеры масштабных инженерных задач, как объекты поиска следов деятельности внеземных цивилизаций.
