The Babylon 5 station is an O'Neill Cylinder, five miles long and a half mile to a mile across, rotating to give artificial gravity. The center is open, and includes fields, hydroponic gardens, and a transport tube running the station length. The station has independent, interconnected sectors, designed differently to avoid claustrophobia. Living areas accommodate the various alien species, including differing atmospheres and gravity. Human visitors to the alien sectors are shown using breathing equipment and other measures to tolerate the conditions. As the series begins, the station is under construction, with only parts completed, others lending to shadowy bowel areas. On some outer levels, the view ports are in floor panels, giving a view into space beneath the feet.
The station is in the Epsilon Eridani binary star system, at the fifth Lagrangian point between the planet Epsilon III and its moon. The station's first three predecessors (the original Babylon station, Babylon 2 and Babylon 3) were sabotaged or accidentally destroyed before their completion. The fourth station, Babylon 4, vanished twenty-four hours after it became fully operational.

Ziggy Stardust is right. Babylon was part of what is now Iraq.

A bad joke. Babylon 5 was a science fiction television series, and those who lived on Babylon 5 could be called "Babylonians".
Humor is a subjective thing - perhaps mine is more subjective than others - many pardons.
