Interesting.

You know I sometimes wonder . . . if a distant civilization wee to send a "generation ship" to orbit our sun at a 'safe distance' . . what ind of orbit would they put it in (I'm thinking something like along period comet) would it look like (maybe two crew sections spinning around a central point to create artificial gravity)?
