Shape of the Orbital Wires?
by Luiz Simi on Wednesday February 11, @03:59AM
Hi, The whole cycler idea is really wonderful and makes a lot of sense (by the way, this article and its two follow-ups were enough to convince me to buy "Permanence" by Amazon.de). But I have a question: which shape the orbital wires around Jupiter (or the brown dwarves) would have? Would they be coil-like, or what? I have trouble to get a picture of how the orbital wires would look like.
