Space Elevator general thread


This thread is to discuss plans for a space elevator, and also HALOs and extraterrestrial habitation

Deep Researcher and others have mentioned that the deep state and international pizza rings have to be replaced to be dismantled, to keep the world economy from crumbling. So, we need to meme into existence space elevators, thorium reactors, and other grand works projects for the 21st century.

Anyone who knows something about something, post links (bonus for jewtube altternatives like vid.me)


in the meantime I'll bump once in a while with some cool concept art

pic related is schematic of how far we can get using just inertia and gravity slingshots

the biggest projects of our time like ITER are constantly behind the schedule and cost way more than originally planned and a space elevator is like a billion times bigger than that, as if humanity had its shit together to pull it off.

they can't even build a test fusion reactor with a shitload of money and brightest eggheads they can find in a reasonable time and reasonable budget and you expect them to manage the launch loop and space elevator.

Here's an idea I thought about.
A space elevator is just a weight in geosynchronous orbit with a thin strong tether down to earth, with a platform that can go up and down on it. Eventually many countries will have at least one.

I was thinking about Korin's tower from Dragonball. I was thinking, what if you made the tether a hollow tube, and it had a climbing surface or spiral staircase to go up. Maybe every 10,000 feet have an airlock, and assuming it's not freezing cold, could someone "walk" up to space? If there was a stairway to a space station, and you walked up stairs to the top, would you gradually get lighter and lighter until you were just floating, or is there some threshold that passing makes you weightless? Usually you're on a rocket and there's G-force from the thrust, so it's hard to notice.

I've been in some of the old threads and I've seen the Tedtalk and a bunch of other videos and articles, never heard of them.

This is a multi trillion dollar project, it's bigger than the moon landing or the Manhattan Project, 2 dudes can't do shit. Elon Musk, Richard Branson or Donald Trump are the level of entrepreneurs we would need to attract, but first there must be public desire for space tourism, grand works projects, ect. I believe that for the cost of Iraq Afghanistan, all those bullshit wars, we could have built one of these. The first one will be the most expensive, because it's experimental, but I bet even India will eventuall get one (superpower by 3020!)

The big hurdle is diverting resources from the military industrial complex.

For example, in The Watchmen comic, there are floating cars and dirigibles and ecigs even though it's 1984. It's explained that Dr. Manhattan synthesizes lithium with his god powers, and that's why there's a bunch of cool tech. In real life in the 80s we had to use nickel cadmium batteries for cordless drills, and cell phones were huge, and the battery life was shit. Then 9/11 happened. First thing I thought when I heard was "we're going to war!" and I was right. I had heard that huge lithium deposits had been discovered in pakistan and Dick Cheney's Haliburton would get the contract to mine it. Fast forward to now lithium batteries everywhere, devices smaller, last longer, great! Problem is, a lot of military power was needed to secure those mining "rights" Deals made with the Taliban, opium farmers, pharmaceutical execs, banks, you name it. It's a huge messy web, held together mostly by CIA blackmail.

We have material that could work but no means to produces it in the lengths required to work.
A orbital ring however is viable with current tech and offers a lot of advantages over a space elevator. Maybe most importantly being able to drive your car into space.

The orbital ring is superior in every measure.

My dream is that one day someone could climb up a space elevator, put on a space suit and wait in a space hotel until the right time, then "jump" so that he catches a dock on the moon or mars (space suit has suspended animation I guess, cause the trip would take a while without thrust) then after docking, climb down and walk to a dome city and explain that he jumped here from earth.

A space elevator is a connection between the surface and a point at geosync with a counter weight extending past. It's held in place by matching the orbital velocity to the speed of free fall.

It's also like 65,000km long.

An orbital belt is a ring that is in orbit above the earth's atmosphere so it's not slowing that much due to friction. You keep that ring at orbital velocity then place around the wire a second hollow tube. Like a coax cable for TV.

The outer ring can then decelerate back down from orbital velocity which would cause it to fall to the Earth but if you induce a magnetic field in the inner cable, you can then push back up against that. As inner cable needs to hold up more mass it needs to spin faster. So you magnetically accelerate the inner ring to support the extra mass. You can then reach a point when the out casing is static to the Earth without needing a 65,000km carbon nano tube wire. Everything is just made by steel or iron.

Now that you have a static ring sitting just above the atmosphere you can drop down access wires that are only a few hundred km long. That can become a railroad system climbing up to the ring. It's well within material strength to build those cables.

The ring now gives you cheap access and with the right gear lets you launch payloads using an low orbital sized railgun. Also because it's so close to the Earth you have almost a full gravity of acceleration.

>How does a space ring is different of a space elevator
Space elevator has pretty well understood dynamics. If we had the materials we could build one. Make a string that goes twice as far as geostationary orbit, about 66,000 miles total. Build station in GEO for servicing this structure. Pods come up and in theory back down the elevator. Powering the pods is an issue.

Space ring has a massive problem with dynamics, harmonics, thermal expansion, MASSCONS, and the huge mass of the rings themselves even if it was allowed to be built over the objections of pretty much everyone that does anything in space.
