Physically accurate O'Neill cylinder simulation built with Claude

Original: I asked Claude build a physically accurate O'Neill cylinder you can walk around

A developer used the AI assistant Claude to build a walkable, physically accurate simulation of an O'Neill cylinder, the rotating space habitat concept that generates artificial gravity through centrifugal force. The interactive model is available online, letting users explore the interior of the hypothetical colony. Commenters are discussing the physics of rotating habitats and how well AI coding assistants handle such technical simulations.

Why now: Interest in AI-assisted coding demonstrations and space habitat concepts is driving attention right now.
