Page "Perry Rhodan" Paragraph 28

The superintelligences are the next step above normal minds.

They are born, for example, when a species collectively gives up its bodies and unites their spirits.

Those superintelligences claim a domain as theirs, consisting of up to several galaxies ( the entity known as " IT " has the Local Group as personal domain ).

The superintelligence nourishes mentally on the species in its domain, sometimes symbiotically ( positive SI ), sometimes parasitically ( negative SI ).

Again, these attributes should not be treated as ethical description, although negative superintelligences are in general described as being more sinister.
