Or the halo from the game 'halo'
Though its important to note that the halos aren't true ringworlds, they aren't nearly big enough.
I guess the big difference is it doesn't encircle the sun
Basically. The the whole idea is that it's 1 AU out so it's in the habitable zone, spinning fast enough to simulate 1 gravity. Stats for nerds.
Also known as a Banks orbital.
Yeah. Ringworld was written way before that and Dyson thought it was a cool idea. Glad to see it used in other stories.
