Would gravity be constant inside a Bernal sphere?
+0
−0
Suppose one constructed a Bernal sphere, similar in design to that described in this article and this article at the National Space Society.
- If the sphere was simply rotated on a single axis, would gravity be constant everywhere on the internal surface? Or would there be areas with stronger gravity and areas with weaker gravity?
- Is there any way to rotate the sphere such that gravity is constant everywhere in the sphere, at least to the point that humans cannot recognize a significant difference in the gravity?
