The concept has been studied for decades, but the Osaka based firm <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obayashi_Corporation">famous for other very ambitious constructions</a>, believes that materials technology has reached the point where a practical system is within reach.</p> <blockquote> <p>In Obayashi’s project, a cable would be stretched up to 96,000 kilometers, or about one-fourth of the distance between the Earth and the moon. One end of the cable would be anchored at a spaceport on the ground, while the other would be fitted with a counterweight.<br/><br/>The terminal station would house laboratories and living space. The car could carry up to 30 people to the station at 200 kilometers per hour, which would mean a 7-1/2 day trip to reach the station. Magnetic linear motors are one possible means of propulsion for the car, according to Obayashi.</p> </blockquote></blockquote>http://scifiction.com/post/18087549530http://scifiction.com/post/18087549530Wed, 22 Feb 2012 13:18:58 -0800sci-fispace elevatordesignspacescience<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o1_500.jpg"/><br/> Collage Vader by Dalek<br/><br/> <img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o2_500.jpg"/><br/> Hexagon Vader by Damon Soule<br/><br/> <img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o3_500.jpg"/><br/> Flying Alien Vader by Dave Horvath<br/><br/> <img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o4_500.jpg"/><br/> Wehrmacht Demon by Dave Krys<br/><br/> <img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o5_500.jpg"/><br/> Spiky Bling Vader by Plasticgod<br/><br/> <img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o6_500.jpg"/><br/> Paint Splash Vader by Kii Arens<br/><br/> <img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o7_500.jpg"/><br/> Taxi Vader by RealxHead<br/><br/> <img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3yrffuzt1qci335o8_500.jpg"/><br/> Hoodie Vader by Ferg<br/><br/> <p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://geekpride.co/post/17318891334">geekpride</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong><a href="http://www.thevaderproject.com/">The Vader Project<br/><br/></a></strong><em>*Click images for titles</em><em> and artists</em></p> </blockquote>http://scifiction.com/post/18086998926http://scifiction.com/post/18086998926Wed, 22 Feb 2012 13:09:40 -0800sci-fistarwarsmoviesartworkdesigndarth vaderthe vader projectcool<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzr3rbuBoY1qffpnho1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Super cool photograph!!
