In the mid 1970's [[Gerard O'Neill]] put together a detailed plan for space settlement in orbiting colonies (or colonies at the [[Lagrange point]]s), published in his popular book ''The High Frontier''. These rotating cylindrical colonies, which provided an Earth-like interior to tens of thousands of colonists, became known as "O'Neill Cylinders".
