    Japan starts work on space elevator

    Japan hopes to turn sci-fi into reality with elevator to the stars - Times Online

    It'd be REAL nice if we actually had a working space elevator. With today's materials though, I'm not really holding my breath on having a working one within my life span.

    wow

    Would people talk on that elevator ride, or just look at the ceiling, shuffling their feet and humming?

    It would be quite a sight. I can think of quite a bit of trash that we could catapult into space, too, from there.

                  In the event of a fire, will astronauts be forced to use the stairs?

                    They'll just open a window and let all the oxygen be sucked out of the thing.

                        Now we have had a lot of flooding in this area and there are still a lot of houses that have not been repaired. Must be the apocalypse.
