Subject: redesign of ONeill cylinder mirrors
all references I have heard of the mirrors for O'Neill cylinders
have them running the entire length of the cylinder would it not
be more practical to design it with 6 half length mirrors
Over a year ago(?)when mirror length was being discussed, I suggested
rotating the cylinder 120 degrees at midlength so as to have 6 half
length mirrors....
-but got no response...
