The documentary film “The High Frontier: The Untold Story of Gerard K. O’Neill,” premiering Saturday, April 17, will introduce a new generation to O'Neill, a Princeton physics professor and inventor who sparked a grassroots movement to build Earth-like habitats in space. (View the trailer.)
O’Neill is best known for his 1977 book, “The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space,” which details how humans can build rotating space habitats in low-Earth orbit using a design he called the “O’Neill Cylinder.”
O’Neill Cylinders were designed to recreate Earth’s gravity and house millions of people for work and play, with the goal of solving the major concerns facing Earth such as hunger, overpopulation, dwindling resources and war.
