Rotational Gravity idea (counter balance: babylon 5)

The idea is was a counter weight system for rotational gravity on a space ship. every action has an equal and opposite reaction. the idea is to construct a space vessel out of two angular weights each with equal angular mass(takes a much effort to turn one ring as it does the other at similar speed or with similar rotational gravity in each ring.) Two out rings with similar angular mass that produce simulated gravity or rotational gravity. this is a variant of the Babylon 5 design. One ring for an oxygen based environment and other ring for a water based environment. the center is engine and control that is devoid of simulated gravity… Rotational gravity on the rings is not center leaving force but a product of centripetal force and tangential force. thus the floor should be constructed perpendicular to average simulated gravity. I would think this would be great to simulate mathematically. though i doubt we would construct much more than a mock up for a satellite station with rats as the experiment occupants with the help of an organization like NASA… and that is at best.

I also thought that putting the rat colony in a simulate capsule would help for first test run.
1: The capsule could have multiple lay outs and we could do a could of trys in space to see if the geometry, food and clean up effected the number of rats and reproduction.
2: If a rat colony with a rotational gravity in space was to suffer from stress then a mixing of drugs like chamomile or marijuana might be good to stop in fighting. We would be medicating a society and not an individual. Some rats may take more drugs than others. Some may take so much drugs that they die but it is an acceptable loss for in space. So I am suggesting the supply is limited so as to de-stress the rodents and give them the most possibility to succeed.

I would like to call the capsule NYMH-ble number 01.
