Yay, Space Elevator! Now we just need two more, and connect all three to make ring around the earth.

(Also the best game to tag is Civilization.....)

if that thing ever falls it will almost wrap around the earth anyway


I wouldnt want to be on that thing when that happens....great another reason to add to my fears of heights along with airplanes ~.~

 

But in this case, wouldnt you die from being exposed to the wild terrain of space before you fall to death XD!?

if this thing falls, wrapping around the earth, i would not only worry about being on it but also in it's path of destruction.

actually the article said it's going to be much longer then 20.000 miles, so it will wrap around the earth twice



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
