Space Elevator 1.0

and it won't be dangled from an asteroid, think of it as a giant rusty anchor in space. that will keep the belt taught. there will be rollers on elevator that will grip the belt and hoist up a payload of about 3 tons.

it will take 8 days to reach orbit where things can be launched with ion propultion only, no more chemical rockets! When this exists for real, you will all see and be happy.

Need more types of this, This is Great, The Hades with the Cost, It gives you something to try or shoot for, if you are setting goals in you city. Keep it upp

Great job.. but too expensive

i made one that crashed the game cus it was too tall its pretty stupid my one cus it crashs the game but it was able to produce water simple to the fact cold produces moisture wich would run down the sides of the tower collecting at the bottem equiling water :P yours it preet cool through

How did you get that coned building in the backround Hong Kongs Melleniume tower

Great !!! Credits to Kim Stanley Robinson (The Mars Trilogy)!

? ?? ???? ????????!

Definitely like the idea, and would use it myself. However, upon merely selecting it the game ctds.

it will put my small town on the map....

I like astronomy, so I say that it looks pretty neat

This is far fetched, innacurate (space doesnt begin 21 km above land), too expensive (as much as 30 hydrogen power plants).

I do believe this came from Star Trek Voyager...

This looks like something my sims will use to end there lives with.

when i try to build it it crashes my game why is this

I really wanted this, but it crashes my game before i can even plop it....

Very good but the game crashes when you try to put it down why this????????? (looks very good)

10 km? :P...thats the high a normal jet flight....not even close to space :D but fun thing

lol sry, posting before i read (2ch.net Simplayer Replied: The actual height of a space elevator is 36000km)

10! Nice work! For those who say this is unrealistic, I have news for you. This is not only a very real, very sound theory, but it is in the early stages of planning. This will be built in our lifetime.

Arthur C. Clarke would be quite pleased.

10000000000/10000000000!!!! Can you tell me how to get that underwater tunnle? Your background city is amazing!!!!! Think you can upload it ? AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dont care if it is realistic or not. SC4 is a game for crying out loud. And since that is the case I shall find use of this fanthastic idea of structure. Thank you for sharing. (BTW. Doing stuff like everbody does is boring, not this material)
