A space ship/space station (1) includes propulsion rockets (60) for translation and thrusters for station keeping and attitude control. The inner components (2, 8) are rotated to produce variable finite gravities while the outer components are stationary for zero gravity. A vertical main module (2) has a horizontal network of minor modules (8) attached thereto to form the spokes and periphery of a wheel structure. This module network is rotated by electromagnetic bearings (44, 10) powered by vehicle (1) electricity. Docking nodes (68) are provided for visiting space ships. A meteor shield (84) is provided around main module (2) and the network of minor modules (8).
