I personally think the sky hook is better because it isn't based on the planets surface and only needs to be 1000km long to work though there is still the risk of rocket launches fuel would only be needed to orbit meaning there is less weight and thus price to launch the same amount of materials plus sky hooks gain force when slowing down spacecrafts so the only needed power source is for the stabilisers on the ends the docking and release and maybe repair robots if needed further more they Can be built with modern tech so I hear but I'm no expert and there is likely many problems such as space debris I'm not knowleable in

Building a space elevator would end up opening first our solar system, then our galactic neighborhood, our whole Galaxy and beyond. we could do if we started actually DOING IT, instead of just thinking about it. How could anyone find exploring space and more-- anything but fantastic and mesmerizing. We could do it, and do it in 20 years I believe. Then the rest of space would be open to the human race. we don't know what's out there but we should go say hi!

For one thing, a construction accident could be catastrophic.
Flashbacks to Foundation TV series' Star Bridge terrorist attack.
Other alternatives to space elevators are either mass drivers, which are essentially half-cannons-half-landing pads for stuff to be shot to or catched from space. Or, space tethers, which would also require to be long and in space, but instead are rotating skyhooks that catch stuff to yeet it into space.

It is possible that It can be built but it's practically impossible, taken in mind the workforce needed, future damage, sabotage, space debris and when we include geopolitics, ola uber incident bound to happen if you get my gist. But hope is always there.
If you wanna see what happens when elevator falls try watching first episode of The foundation tv series.

There are more than 500 space agencies and companies, private and public both if entire world agree to build an space elevator, it won't gonna take much time and money but the thing is restricting us to do this is competition between each other.

A ridiculous idea debunked over and over again. Most famously popularized by the boy diddler Arthur C Clarke. Anyone with ears can tell that they chose another boy diddler to narrate this video. That hardly seems like a coincidence.

If by accident this structure falls it'll be catastrophic. Obviously these people never watched Gundam 00 lol
On a serious note rich countries will just shrug off the damage by donations and relief packages again like nothing happened

I can see so many risks with this method of the transportation, namely the amount of space junk that exists from old satellites. you may as well attach a nuclear bomb to a spacecraft.

Tsiolkovsky is Russian, and Russia produces the most nanotubes in the world, so Russia has more chances to implement this project, of course, if other countries will also support it.

I have been told about this for years and I wonder why people are so hyped about it. It is still long time until you are able to connect the Earth to the Moon using a tube
