    Title

    Global Strategy for Space Elevators

    type

    oral

    Description

    The recently completed IAA study, "Space Elevators - Feasibility and Next Steps" looked at engineering, operational, and funding steps towards an operational capability. This session will suggest strategies to implement the space elevator infrastructure. In addition, the session can accept the strategies to leverage this remarkable transportation capability of routine, inexpensive and safe access to our solar system.
