Cant imagine how it even could be automated without advanced robotics. Those ships are freakin HUGE! Maybe a collection of robotic snakes with cutting lazers attached to their heads and some little scuttle bots to pick up the pieces the snakes knock off? Just cut the whole thing into 1' disks or maybe hexagons is better
Upvoot for the matrix
What do you think snakes are
Just make a huge version of those supermarket bread slicer machines and feed the ships through it.
Or better yet, build a bigger ship and use it to smash the smaller ship to pieces
Ngl a ship eating ship is metal af
I just read The Three Body Problem, and I have some ideas on how it could be done.
Oh! One of my favorite books, have you read all three?
The three book problem
Not yet, but I will!
Oh, there is actually a fourth one by a different author but with Liu Cixin's approval. It goes deeper into the trisolarian biology than the main series. I havent read that one yet
I'd suggest skipping it. While it's a fun continuation, the writer is not nearly as good as Liu Cixin. It's definitely a fanfic
This kind of makes me curious! I didn’t finish the third book of the original trilogy …
Definitely try and finish the series first. The unofficial fourth is a direct continuation of some of the in-universe lore/happenings
It can be automated it would just never be worth the cost. Every ship is different and has its own requirements.
If they were all 100% exactly the same, using the same hardware in all the same places then it would be cost effective to automate their disassembly. Otherwise every single ship is a one-off edge case.
Even if they're mostly the same many will have had upgrades, repairs, and changes over time that could literally throw a wrench (that someone accidentally left inside an interior area) into the whole (automated) operation.
I think the best case scenario is to enforce shipbuilding standards and deny ships entry if they don't follow them (for loading/unloading, anyway). Then you setup standardized dry docks with robotic arms that are already preprogrammed to disassemble these standard vessels. They may need human guidance for some areas that are allowed to be non-conforming but as long as the majority of the ship adheres to the standard it'd make the whole process much smoother and more environmentally friendly.
From an environmental standpoint the real issues from these vessels isn't even the difficulty of (environmentally friendly) disassembly. It's their emissions over their working lifetime and super toxic things like anti-fouling coatings that where we have no good way to remove or dispose of them. Like, even if you rip off the outside of a ship what do you do with that toxic waste? It's nasty stuff.
Informed and informative, upvoot!
Definitely not terrifying
