Greetings and a Question

One thing is why would you bother making something like this. Of course it's living space for anyone who prefers 1 g, but here's a rather frivolous use:

I once read a fantasy short story, where when you travelled around the Earth, there'd be magically more of the planet as you went around. At the same time you'd go 'back in time', the species would be older and older. The heroes travelled round and round in a steampunk flying contraption and got stranded on where/when there wasn't land life, or something.

Anyway, you could use one of the hoops, or part of it, as a massive 1:1 zoo where the exhibits would get more and more primitive when you followed the hoop. A Lazurogenic Park, if you will. Of course you could have sophonts living along the 'history', maybe for studies, hunting, primitive lifestyles, tourism, ...
