No need to have an inflatable structure.
We can make a thin disc of the GBO plastic and then put some
strengthening fibres in (Probably carbon nano tubes).
By rotating the whole disc we will be able to make it hold its shape.
I would like to have some kind of control of orientation and position
if possible with rocket thrusters (probably solar powered ion drives).
