   My Google powers appear weak tonight. I've seen film of a long duration   
   experiment in the USSR using a custom built centrifuge to give 1.5 or   
   2G. Caravan sized living quarters on the end of the arm where the   
   subjects stayed, and access through the hub and down a tunnel to let   
   researchers get in and out without spinning the thing down.
