I know that's true of Niven's ringworld, which is just unholy scale and parameters - 1 rotation like the earth does in a year, every 9 days! (1)

And so it cannot be made from atoms, something with "tensile strength similar to the strong nuclear force" is needed (2)

But is it true of Banks's more practical Orbital as well? This reference says yes: "No form of ordinary matter will support the tensions of a Banks Orbital's spin, so exotic matter is required." (3)
