In one of the pictures I believe I see a hang glider. I am breaking my brain trying to figure out the dynamics there. Maybe it's simpler than I'm imagining, but what happens as you fly "up-rotation" at speed?
- GravitasFailure 5y agoI've got the same question. My guess is that, unless there's something to keep the air stationary relative to the station, you're going to get what looks like a tailwind which gives you plenty of extra lift, but an outside observer will see a headwind pushing you with the station's rotation keeping you from going into a true free fall. I really want to hear from anyone that disagrees because there's got to be something I'm missing. Ultimately we probably just need to do some testing.
