: A lush, 360-degree equatorial park that acts as the city's lungs, recycling CO2 and providing space for vertical hydroponic farms.
: The industrial and administrative hub, where the main gyroscopic stabilizers and "Cloud-Docks" for transport shuttles are located. 4. The Sky-Economy

: Integrated flexible organic photovoltaics across the surface turn the entire sphere into a massive solar battery.
Each city is encased in a multi-layered, transparent . This shell serves three primary functions:
: High-altitude cities serve as the physical nodes for the "Sky-Net," a low-latency global data network that bypasses vulnerable undersea cables. 5. Inter-City Connectivity
