You do know that half the people I know are laughing at this.....

BILL GATES WOULD FUND IT! His company made millions off the game, he would make trillions off the project.

Seriously, WTF is this? what were you smoking, and can we have some?

im afraid im gonna have to confiscate your testicles.

What are you, the Cyber police? lol.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Are you talking about in real life? Or a game? If you're talking about real life, you're just insane, if its a game, with that it'll take maybe 1 and a half years. A thread has been made about this, but.....that person was talking about it in real life...

Well I don't know about a whole website but I could give you a page on my site. Tell me exactly what you want to put and I'll add it.

I heard that BorealFace face got killed by the NSA , I think actually Sam Fisher was in that mission too.

Poor guy Thats what happends when you come up with a bright idea like that , they just shut you down :( we can hope that someday we can clone einstein so he can persue this Great Project someday.....

The thread is revived, I see. Well, read my earlier post to understand why this is a dumb idea:

Posted by: Vitamin Zawaz
Oh my god.

My first problem with this idea--how are you going to implement gravity in the ring? In the real world, gravity usually attracts matter to a single point. How are you going to make gravity work on the curved sides of a ring?

My second problem--only a thousand feet thick? What the hell. If one comet or asteroid or anything smacks into the ring, it would easily split it. Then, all the pieces would separate, you'd kill millions of the ring's inhabitants, and massive boulder-sized metal debris would come raining down on earth, creating tidal waves, crushing homes, killing millions more people, and then we'd have a comet shower because all of the ring's oceans would flow into space, become frozen droplets that are the size of Trump Tower, and even more people would die. All hell would break loose.

A third problem--moon mining. Okay...so its diameter is 40 miles...that means its circumference is 40pi. So if you were to spread the ring out, it would be over 120 miles long. Considering the width of the ring...you'll need 240 square miles of moon to make this ring. Yeah, um...reducing the moon by that much would affect tides and would affect gravitational pulls on both Mars and Venus.

A fourth problem--money. Where are you gonna get money for a moon mining program and the thousands of robots? Better yet--where are you gonna get the money for the thousands of rocket ships that will send people to the ring?

Until you can find a solution to these four big flaws, then the project will never work.

Somebody please try to find a loop-hole in these four points. If you can disprove all four of them, then congrats! You have a shot at building such a ring. Until then...it is scientifically impossible.

1. Who needs gravity?
(1.1 lets steal venus')
2. Force Feild
3. Lets use mercury!
4. Lets have all the volenteers become hookers to raise money!

what happens when their is no moon left to take rocks from. And how in the hell are you going to accomplish this?! I'm in if there is a reasonable answer.

First Problem:

Actually, there is a way of using a ring to create gravity. Wouldn't the centrifugal force of a ring's rotation (In halo it obviously rotates, you can tell whenever it shows the ring) cause a pull towards the inner areas of the ring. For example, swing a bucket filled with water around in a circle. The water stays in the bucket, right? The motion of the bucket around the center keeps the water in the bucket. I'm not sure how a constant rotation would be achieved, but it would probably work.

Second Problem:

The ring would need alot of reinforcing, sure, but who says the ring has to be built exactly to a video games specifications? We could make it 2000 feet thick. And remember, this is still 2000ftx2 miles of solid reinforced material. Most asteroids and meteors are usually pretty small, we havent had any dangerously large asteroids travelling close to earth recently, have we? Sure, they will still be pretty deadly but you have asteroid monitoring and repair crews handy.

Third problem:

Theres plenty of material in our system. Mars, the moon, earth's deep crust, you know.

Fourth:

Donations! lol... If you could convice the world of the benifits of a giant ring in orbit around the earth, I think you could get the money for it. How bout 50 bucks from every person in the world who could pay? That would get you $3,250,000,000 aproximately... You just need a really good advertising company :-P

This is pretty funny......
The fact that the creator made 3DMAX models is kinda....cool. At first I thought what he meant was a virtual construcitng of the ring of some sorts, like there were 3dmax robots building it in a flash animation and then you could stay in the ring to enjoy the sites or something like that....virtually........
But the chances of physically building a ring world are: none.
Either the creator has a vivid imagination, or he's living 2,000 years in the future where such projects cost only about $200.00

I'm in i will do what ever you want for this project steals bill gates' money ,build robots or anything for it.

There's only one kind of metal, and it's black.

If you can build your own ring out of Legos™, then you can start with your robots.

btw, it's impossible to make a ring with Legos™.

I would love to help, but I have no money, no expertise in mining, or any other fields that concern this mammoth project. I could be the optimist; the guy who says "We can do it!" and I can give you a little info to begin with:
We would either need to prefabricate parts and send them up, situate the construction in deep space, or mount thrusters on the construction as the gravity of Earth would be a problem. Robots would be better replaced with people, but we might see the rise of great new robotic technology within the next couple of years. This would either take very long, or you would have a LOT of robots. I think you should make the robots look like Sentinels and Sentinel Majors so we will have some Forerunner eye candy after we're done. It would probably better that all of the robots were tethered to the Solar Panel, so if they begin to float off into space, they won't be lost forever. We should mount weapons systems and defensive installations on Halo to defend against any unwanted guests (Cough) The Flood (Cough). We should also incorporate levels from Halo into Halo, that way, we can visit Blood Gulch any time we wish. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT BIO-ENGINEERING SOME FLOOD! If you would like, we can pay some people to walk around in Covenant costumes, maybe even have a few re-enactments of memorable Halo battles, such as the Quarantine Zone or New Mombasa.

May this fevered madman's dream come to life!

do you have the trillions of USD we would need?


That wouldn't work... we need to steal the Chinese economy in the night and bring to europe so we can use euros!!
