Rotating Ring Habitat

This is a sketch of one of my proposals for the challenge: Conceptual Design Challenge: Artificial Gravity for Human Colonies on the Moon and MarsThis proposal takes as a reference the most viable principle for the generation of artificial gravity and one of the most represented in science fiction for this purpose, the use of centrifugal force. By rotating the ring at an angular speed that will depend on its radius, we will be able to generate a radial acceleration equal to that of Earth's gravity. The system is inspired by MAGLEV high-speed trains, for more information visit: https://sites.tufts.edu/eeseniordesignhandbook/2015/maglev-magnetic-levitating-trains/Access to the rotating ring is done through capsules that match its speed and are coupled to it, entering a special module for reception and ascent/descent of passengers. Then, you can leave in the same way through an external route.
