Hmm, yes that could work. Of course having maybe dogs and cats around the living apartments might cause problems with the life support system. Pet hair...hate that stuff....

Chech out Redcolony.com there is a lot of information there about it. Especially PFCs.

Exactly, It cna be simulated by centrifugal foce if the craft was spinning. If it was in a Ring design habitats could be located on the ring would have artificial gravity.

Very nice argument you guys.

I was going to say though, I think that it is possible to terraform Earth. If you think of the original Earth, before humans and advanced civilization, that was what the goal of terraofrming was. Now after industriazation, the atmosphere and and ozone are deterioating, oil spills are wrecking the enviroment, rain forests being cut down, its going down hill, so if we terraform Earth we try to bring it back to what it originally was.


Another thing.

Good friggin question. I believe that KSR's trilogy is taking place after some sort of socialist revolution, because there isn't much capitalism, as it were.

Thats not entirely true becasue a socialist revolution would not allow metanationals to form, that can only occur in capitalism.



On the Martianforming, I don't really see the point in changing a planet into a place where we as humans and all other forms of life are restriced to CELSS.
