@arstechnica so, are you saying that if they are just spinning super-f-fast, then they won't break down? That can't be too easy to do.
The only question, because it says 'supersonic', are we talking about the speed of sound in the medium? Of course we must be, and Mars has a specific atmospheric density.
This is pretty interesting.
