The Stanford torus is a proposed design[1] for a space habitat capable of housing 10,000 to 140,000 permanent residents.[2] The Stanford Torus was proposed during the 1975 NASA Summer Study, conducted at Stanford University, with the purpose of speculating on designs for future space colonies.[3] (Gerard O'Neill later proposed his Island One or Bernal sphere as an alternative to the torus.)[4]Wernher von Braun[5] and Herman Potočnik.[6] "Stanford torus" refers only to this particular version…

Our floating homes that shelter us against the great cosmic void.
