We are doing a bang up job this month. Keep up the good work. With all of the holiday vacation time coming up, I expect this to be our busiest month.
The main reason for this posting is to ask you if anyone knows how to build a space elevator. One end is attached to the Earth's surface and the other end is orbiting in space. The centrifugal force will keep the elevator straight. Think of it like spinning a weight on a string around your head.
Once the elevator is built, then we could just put our stuff into the elevator and push the up button to deliver the goods into space orbit. It sure beats the old fashioned way of combining liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen in a combustion chamber and allowing the explosion gases to escape through a small hole.
