Summary

[edit]
Description
English: By creating an array of space shields to cover the Sun, it is possible to convey a meaningful message, for example, a close approximation of a meaningful mathematical constant PI. Placing the shields near to the Sun, and in an orbit aligned with the galactic plane, would probabilistically maximise the chances of observers on the planets of other stars noticing the effect tools analogous to the Kepler Mission's ones.
