Was really thinking of an earth orbiting laboratory setup with a radius of about 250m and rotation speeds of about 2-3 rpm. Need to model it when I have some time. Just to gain actual data on different gravities and durations. The starship has plenty of room for the habs to run experiments on plants and people. Each one has propulsion in case of a cable failure. You’re correct, the cable snapping would be big concern.
