SpaceX Will Launch Private Space Station With Artificial Gravity in 2025

A private space station company, Vast, will partner with SpaceX to launch a commercial space station called "Haven-1" as soon as 2025. The catch? Part of it will simulate lunar-levels of gravity aboard the space station, revolutionizing the industry if successful. After deploying this "Haven-1" space station in low-Earth orbit, four commercial astronauts will launch to the facility on board SpaceX's Crew Dragon vehicle.

If they want more people on a space station then realistically you can make anything larger with more thrust to weigh with crew and fuel and cargo and engines.

whether centripetal force will be adequate as gravity substitute should be very interesting to see. there are some obvious issues with it, like the force is different relative to the distance to the center of the plane of movement, so on a small station your head may experience different force than your legs lol. less of an issue on a large station.

I don't think we should get distracted by the promotional graphical renders highly doubt that artificial gravity is feasible on such small dimensions.
