Alright retards I have an idea for a cool space game and want to guage interest

>Play as a soviet astronaut who has infilitrated NASA
>Get launched on an apollo mission
>Have to sabotage it enough to force an abort, but not so much that you're killed/discovered

IDK if it'll be 2D or 3D, but I think the main pillars would be sabotaging the spacecraft (minigames and stuff), and convincing your other crewmembers that your innocent.

by that question I meant that the station simulates gravity, like this one from 2001, but you still make a good point.

btw, This space station has simulated gravity, whereas...

Say you are inside of a space station that spins clockwise to create artificial gravity. What happens if you run anti-clockwise at the same rate as the station's spin?

No change?
No gravity?

Why or why not?

NASA should not be working on manned missions (or even robotic missions) to other planets in our solar system. NASA should be working, in conjunction with other space agencies, on building the first permanent human settlement in low earth orbit – specificly, a very large rotating human space habitat (VLRHSH) at least 1,000 meters in diameter and capable of housing at least 100 people comfortably, and producing its own food and power.

Why? Because this space station would be our all-purpose vehicle. We could use it to go anywhere, including to other solar systems. It would be comfortable, and it could serve as a generation ship for any journey lasting longer than a human lifetime. Although it would take decades to build even one – and even that's assuming the NASA budget is doubled – I think we should build as many as possible, and focus on very little else.

Space exploration and colonization is an end in itself. Humanity *will* go extinct if we confine ourselves to a single world. It may happen a hundred million years from now; it might happen next year. We *must* have an offworld population.

2001 is eleven years ago.

space station recreates gravity by using centrifugal force (inertia actually) and throwing you out to the circumference.

Well maybe a species that doesn't care much about the individual but only the species itself would build a generationship. They could theoretically move from star to star and look for uninhabitated planets to build bases,reproduce, mine minerals and build 2 new ships that go to the next stars. With that method they could populate the galaxy quite quickly.(astronomically speaking)
Side effect would be however that their species turns into thousands of sub species which would if they don't have some sort if FTL communication to maintain a structure lead to many governments which could easily lead to war.
