And it has adapted to be able to survive most of the kinds of radiation that we do receive from the sun. | |

The amount of (hard) X radiation is probably crucial, but I have not been able to find (complete) spectral characteristics of quasars. Relativistic jets are truly dangerous, if they hit the structure, they'll sterilize everything in their path - but they'd do it only with a small fraction of the living space, no more than a square lightyear or so (typical ringworld around a quasar would have the radius of some lightyears). | |
