Should we A) colonise other planets or B) build habitats in the middle of space, like O'Neill Cylinders and stuff? - eviltoast

    I don’t see the application of an O’Neil Cylinder within the Earth and Mars gravity wells given how expensive they would be to build next to better places to grow crops.

    If one does get built, I would expect it in orbit around Jupiter or Saturn to support activity there.
