#ScientificAmerican 📆 November 25, 2022 Stephen Cohen has been working on #SpaceElevators 🚠 for almost 20 years. He believes they will exist soon— in two or three decades. To build it, we need a #material whose specific strength 💪 is about 50 times higher than #steel https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/space-elevators-are-less-sci-fi-than-you-think

"#SpaceElevators are often dismissed as a science fiction dream, but I believe they will exist soon—perhaps in two or three decades. Throughout my career as an aerospace engineer and physics professor, I keep coming back to the concept of a cable stretching from Earth to space, along which people and cargo can easily travel. In recent years I and other researchers have found new ways to tinker with designs and answer questions about how space elevators could work." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/space-elevators-are-less-sci-fi-than-you-think/
“Space elevators will become a reality fifty years after we stop laughing.”
Arthur C. Clarke
