Made a rough mockup of how the inner ring segments would need to rotate as La Oruga increases thrust. Note that the whole ring would be constantly rotating for spin gravity... I didn't animate that part. 🎲✂️ #ExoVerse #ExoShip #BetweenTheStars - ThreadSky

Having @ksylves.bsky.social , an *actual space station engineer*, on the team is pretty freaking rad.

You and I must be on the same wavelength. I've been conceptualizing something very similar for a writing project.

Awesome! Is it also about a generation ship?

This whole ExoVerse has grown so much since I first made ExoBase, it really has taken on a life of its own. 🧡

Yes, my intent once I retire is to write a story set on a ship carrying 9000 people that takes 450 years to get from the solar system to Alpha Centauri. I envision a rotating ring-shaped ship very much like yours. Funny that we settled on similar solutions to similar settings

Awesome! Colony ships are such an evocative concept; there’s so much to explore, there. @msoucy.gay is also making a TTRPG set aboard our ship: #BetweenTheStars I’m so excited about it. 🧡
