# Orbital Ring Station

An orbital ring station: a ribbed habitat wheel with lit window bays, four spokes into a docking hub, and an antenna mast through the axis. The whole station is one distance field under fifteen interpolated numbers, so it morphs by deforming rather than cross-fading, through four hulls: heavy drum, habitat wheel, bladed rotor, needle array. Bass swells the wheel, mid flares the collector blades, treble draws the mast and radial needles out. Rests as the habitat wheel.
