Who was Dr. Gerard K. O'Neill? O'Neill was an American physicist and space activist best known for his 1977 book "The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space." The book details how humans could build rotating space habitats in low Earth orbit using a design he called the "O'Neill Cylinder." The habitat could recreate Earth's gravity and would house millions of people, eventually solving major concerns facing Earth such as hunger, overpopulation, resources, and war. Dr. O'Neill passed in 1992 from leukemia, but forever inspired a generation of space leaders and visionaries known as "Gerry's Kids" who keep his vision alive today.
