' Wrote:Yes, you have a point but when was the ring built? and surely not every station has to deal with such large gravitational stresses. And if i'm honest the ring looks like a rather feeble structure, surely someone would have built one that doesnt look as if its still made out of modules that nasa use today?
Its built after the connection of all of the first space stations that orbited NB and was the point where Rheinland first entered space. And yes, station built away from planets wouldn't have to worry about gravitational stress, problem is most large space stations have been built in planetary orbit.
Also what's wrong with the look of the appearance of the modules? Its a simple but functional design.
