WHAT IS A SPACE
ELEVATOR?
A space elevator is a
proposed
structure designed to
transport material
from a celestial body
's surface
into space.
EARLY CONCEPT.
(a). MOBILE
(b). STATIONARY
(a). MOBILE BASE STATION.
Mobile stations
are typically
large
oceangoing
vessels,
though airborne
stations have
been proposed
as well.
(b). STATIONARY BASE STATION.
Stationary
platforms
would generally be
located in
high-altitude
locations,
such as on top of
mountains,
or even potentially
on high towers.
2. CABLE
Can be thought of as a
sheet of graphite
(a hexagonal lattice of
carbon) rolled into a
cylinder.
