About "Asteroid Colony - Shot 3"

Animation of an asteroid that has been repurposed — hollowed out and turned into a habitat for humans in space. The internal diameter of the cylindrical living space is 4km, and the station rotates at a rate of 0.69 revolutions per minute to give an artificial (spin) gravity of 1g. Structures such as these are known as O'Neill colonies.
