The world is around one million miles wide and 600 million miles in circumference. This world turns out to actually be an artificial structure, created not by a force of nature, but by this quasi planet’s strange inhabitants. At the center of the ring rests this unusual world’s sun. The surface of this planet, unlike our round earth, is flat and long like a ribbon, and forms a circle, or ring. The series centers around an alien race called the Puppeteers, and their discovery of a planet which is known as Ringworld in a previously unknown area of the universe. Although earth as we know it has drastically changed in this future setting, we can still recognize certain familiar core elements that make up the place we readers are from. As with many of Larry Niven’s science fiction stories, the Ringworld books begin in the known world, taking place on earth but at a date sell well in the future.
