Asteroids to mine for a incredible undertaking for a Utopia society, world take shape around the year 2150.

Very cool idea.

@Jianju69 Thank you very much! I have wondered about that since Halo came out!

@Otaku35 Jumping on the "ground" (inside of the ring world) would be very much like jumping on the surface of the Earth. You see, the ringworld is spinning, so you're stuck to the ground in the same way you're stuck to the walls in one of those spinning-cylinder carnival-rides. If you jump, you're fighting against this artificial gravity, & the ground wouldn't start rushing past beneath because you would already have momentum of the spin, (which would also push you back to the surface.)

@Jianju69 It makes me wonder if jumping would be possible inside such a structure! You'd go floating to the other side... I think

Its an alien space craft. Humanity didn't build it. Hm, wonder when Morgan Freeman will be able to make the film. He's been trying since 2000 to produce it.

I just started reading the Rendez-vous and I noticed the three ladders and stair cases are missing from the north end.. But the bisecting ocean is there, along with it's New York island...and the south end has the spiky things.... Very, very Cool!

What really got me going was the plane rushing by; can you IMAGINE the possibilities of aeronautics in a zero-G atmosphere??? Once you left the centrifugal force of the inner surface, you'd be Scott-free.
The music is perfect for this too, btw.
