Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Vasi

Would need a big spider to get a strong enough cable.

I think is impossible to get it into space. And also impossible to produce it in space and let it go down on Earth...

Stop thinking so negative
Of course we can solve the jump to Space!
We mine the Earth core for its Iron and Nickel, Use the remaining petroleum reserve to place it in orbit, add 16 Billion tons of Niobium, strategically placed solar arrays to magnetize this artificial moon, As a binary system with the Gravity fields equal an very close together we set the artificial moon to a day-night rotation period that is equal to escape velocity. The Irish system is now in demand, by proper maneuvering the magnetic field will slingshot our Craft to any destination. ---Cheers, Roe

Time has proven that I am blind to the Obvious, some of the above may be True?
