How to Use This Tool

This calculator determines the relationship between the diameter, rotation speed, and resulting centrifugal "gravity" of a rotating space station (like an O'Neill cylinder).

Simply input any two known parameters and leave the third one completely blank. When you click "Calculate Missing," the program will solve for the blank field using standard orbital mechanics physics.
