The More Maths, the Merrier - a photo on Flickriver

            So this page is a bit more involved than rev1 but I make far more assumptions. 

At the top is a calculation for the error in the produced "gravity" based on a person moving along a floor at 4.5m/s (FAST) and a change in radius of 6m above or below the mid level. The error ends up being around .075g but I do not know how that change would actually affect a person. Realistically, people probably won't be sprinting around this station very often so it shouldn't be too much of an issue. 

To the right are VERY rough calculations for the mass of the habitat structure and of the cable. I am sure I did something wrong though because I found that a single habitat would weigh more than the ISS...

Below those are even rougher calculations for the mass of the tether. I have no experience here so this mass is probably completely crazy. 

At the very bottom and to the left is a simple Center of Mass equation to determine an appropriate radius for the apparent CoM of the generator. I may make the generator a lot more massive to balance out the cable as the distance is currently 0.5km. 

I'll consult with a professor about all of this if I can.
