Yeah, but a Banks Orbital keeps in air with centripetal force from the rotation of the habitat. There's no roof. Think about what's gonna happen in interstellar space. Also, why don't we just use the CSE wormhole?

Need to get the generator there first, and that'll take a couple of months.

Though that's the plan  :D

My main worry here is the air freezing out in the Banks Orbitals. But, if push comes to shove, They could always be converted into giant spacecraft using Bussard Ramjets.

A Wormhole generator would be placed at both systems once the ARK has arrived at it's destination.

Yeah, but I don't want CSE citizens dieing on route to the destination.

They won't, the banks orbitals stay within the armok system while the ark and that travel to the new system.

And then the orbital go through wormhole deployed by the ark?

Yeah, but you've got to capture a natural wormhole, stabilize both ends, drag one end with the ark, and leave the other end in the Armok System. And then, when you've got it set up the way you want, you've got to thread the wormhole's throat with exotic matter with negative mass.

Sure. And since the Stanford Tori and O'neill cylinders are closed systems, they could accompany the ark. Interstellar Convoy!
