Would decreasing the diameter of an orbital ring create artificial gravity?
+0
−0
My habitat ring is constructed in orbit around a planet with disconnected sections: (not to scale, obviously)
The sections are connected by cables and winched together.
As the diameter gets smaller, the ring should spin faster.
Does this give my ring artificial gravity?
