Space Elevators Are the Transportation Story of the 21st Century

A new paradigm has emerged:

• space elevators can be accomplished because we now have a material

• space elevators enable interplanetary missions

  fast transit to Mars (as short as 61 days, with variations out to 400+)

  can release towards Mars EVERY day (no 26 month wait)o Can move massive amounts of cargo (180,000 MTs/year to GEO-beyond)

• space Elevators are Earth friendly

• space solar power replaces 100s of coal power plants

• no rocket exhaust to contribute to global warming

• no additional space debris

• opens up remarkable commercial enterprises at Earth Port, GEO Region +

• offer to all future scientists: any size science experiment, any solar system destination, releases every day towards multiple scientific destinations
