[Hyperobjects] are viscous, which means that they “stick” to beings that are involved with them.

They are nonlocal; in other words, any “local manifestation” of a hyper- object is not directly the hyperobject.

They involve profoundly different temporalities than the human-scale ones we are used to. [...]

They occupy a high-dimensional phase space that results in their being invisible to humans for stretches of time.

They are formed by relations between more than one object. Consequently, entities are only able to perceive the imprint, or "footprint," of a hyperobject upon other objects, revealed as information.
