Elon Musk could have built a Stanford Torus in space to replace the retiring ISS.

Why, so we can send more people to get irradiated and have their bones/muscles permanently damaged? Space is not a good place for humans.

stanford torus doesn't have this problem since it can simulate gravity

Space right now is for robots. Instead of wasting money on keeping watery bags of meat floating around in low earth orbit, invest that money in robotics and automation. Then use those tools to build much better habitats for humans.

Why would robots be used to build space habitats for humans if space is for robots?

Yea or he could spend 10billion to make everyone ,including the third world liberals have been dumping potential NASA money to for half a century, actually PAY more than 10billion a YEAR to fund his personal Space program safe from the whims of the political sphere.

Enjoy your puke carousel. Needs at least 400m diameter to not make people sick.

According to that, 40m radius is enough, only one downward yellow triangle. Professional astronauts should be able to adjust to it.

Moon-equivalent psuedo-gravity is easy at 80 meters.

Also that's plainly wrong even for earth-equivalent psuedo-gravity according to your own tool.

Same question, literally why.

Unless you're planning on having people live in microgravity, all experiments relevant to the lives of people will be done in earth gravity.
