Artificial Gravity Habitat - Work in Progress

This is a proposal for a speculative artificial gravity space station. The intent is to provide a practical, modular construction system built on ISS heritage: 12 nearly identical modules fabricated and outfitted on Earth then launched in a rocket fairing. Each module is a mix of aluminum and fabric pressure vessel, with rigid rings connected by shaped fabric sections to enable a curved overall module form that aligns the interior floor of each section with the spinning station’s gravity vector. The primary contiguous floor is at a 30-meter radius, creating an approximate apparent Martian gravity of 0.37g at 3.3 rpm, but other gravity regimes are possible as well. A deployable, integrated truss structure supports solar arrays, radiators, and a tunnel connecting the central core module to three of the radial modules.
