Space elevator,artwork
Space elevator. Artwork of a transporter moving along a space elevator from the surface of the Earth to space. To remain stable,the elevator needs to rise all the way to geostationary orbit at a height of 35,900 kilometres,with a counterweight above that. Immensely strong materials (such as carbon nanotubes) would be needed to build this structure,which is a cross between a tower and a rope. The transporter here is called the Clarke Clipper,named after the British science-fiction author Arthur C. Clarke (1917-2008),who wrote about space elevators in his novel The Fountains of Paradise (1979). Clarke also wrote about geostationary orbit,which is sometimes called the Clarke Orbit
