15 x 30 km in dimension, rotating 40 times an hour, entire several counties could spread out over the inner surface, millions living and working in space...
Very nice, I like the striving for authenticity.
ReplyDeleteYou have probably seen this, it calculates the radius and RPM of a rotating cylinder to generate artificial gravity: http://www.artificial-gravity.com/sw/SpinCalc/SpinCalc.htm
ReplyDeleteI think RPM has to be lower than 2 to avoid nausea caused by coriolis effect.
Hope it's helpful.
