Re: Rotating air tight seals
That sounds like it may, possibly work. On the other hand, it seems to have many more moving parts than I suspect most would have envisioned for a rotating airlock, not to mention all those potential failures. I'm sure that eventually there will be a space habitat that rotates and better minds than mine will find a way of docking with it. Maybe the first attempt will be simple. Two docking ports either side of the central axis, one for the "life boat", the other for visiting ships, which will simply match spin and dock, no moving parts required (other than opening doors and pumps)
