What happened to the wheel space stations.
In my mind the Wheel design was a atmosphere bound idea for humans that did not know what space was like. What I had been hoping for is the shuttle external fuel tanks would be sent into space and be used for as habitats that people could start building homes in. Since 2008 that dreams has faded when Discovery melted away over Texas in 2006. Now it seems the Euros will be sending things bigger than a basket ball, since the best we can do is tape ants to bottle rockets with the accountants we have today.
