Interstellar travel?

I watched a documentary and it said that an O'neills Cylinder could achive at least 6% of the speed of light and a Maximum of 15% if the SOL by using Specially made Nuclear bombs to thrust the ship forward.
This would work by using a massive piston inside of the ship with shock obsorbers at the end so that the Nuclear bombs don't destroy the ship, and Propell the ship forward, NASA and ESA Scientists believe that firing a specially engineered Nuclear bomb once every 3 Minutes for several days would get the ship moving at about 10% if the speed of light, After this speed is achieved they'd only have to fire one every few month to keep the speed up.
The ship itself would be rotating around this Piston to create an Artificial Gravity which would create a comfortable interior, inside again would be a Massive Light which would give rays similar to that of the sun which could allow us to Grow plantation so the interior would be breathable but if that failed, you could create oxygen to breath by putting electrical currents into water to remove the Oxygen, there would by a giant ligh stretching through the middle which would get dimmer and brighter to simulate earths day and night cycles. Food wouldn't be anything fancy, you wouldn't be eating stake or bread, you'd be getting your protein from animals such as worms, insects, things that give you Protein and help the soil, you'd also have crops that are resistance to the radiation in space if radiation effects the food, you wouldn't be growing corn in space you'd be growing Algy, you'd eat gorella crackers, little green crackers and worms and insects that could provide Protein so you#d be eating a stable diet. You'd also be bringing Microbes with you, so that we could still do basic things like digest the food you eat and the new generation of Humans that would likely be born in space wouldn't get ill easily when they reach the new planet.
Another thing would be Law and order, you'd bring a small militaristic Force along in the event of a revolution if one should happen, or you run into a hostile force on the planet you reach, which seems unlikely but you can never be too safe, there would also be the equitment inside the ship to create basic new civilization on the planet if they reach it safely.
