A space station in the shape of a uniform disk (mass 8.44x105 kg, radius 687 m)...

A space station in the shape of a uniform disk (mass 8.44x105 kg, radius 687 m) rotates with period 86.3 seconds. There are also 781 astronauts (whom you can treat as point particles) working inside the space station, each of mass 188 kg, and all standing on the outside rim and rotating with the station. Now, all the astronauts move to a conference room at the very center of the space station. Find the new period of the rotation of the space station.
