It would be nice if they'd take care of some of the Muslim 'refugees' flooding into other countries.

Or, the 200 million Africans who will need to migrate out of Africa by 2050 or starve to death.

These people are vulgar with their waste.

Either an early April Fool joke or someone really doesn’t understand orbital mechanics.

“By placing a large asteroid into orbit over earth, a high-strength cable can be lowered towards the service of earth from which a super tall tower can be suspended,”

Total nonsense. If gravity and atmospheric forces didn’t snap the cables first, then drag on the parts in the atmosphere would eventually pull the asteroid down into a degraded orbit and re-entry. Goodbye life on planet earth as we know it.

Like hell. What will they do with the disabled? Throw them out of the building? They sure as hell can’t use a parachute (neither can the vast majority of ordinary people).

This is even more dumb that the idiotic idea of using a cable attached to Earth to tether a station miles high, with access by an “elevator” that would go up and down the cable.

Everyone calm down. Remember, the Arabs were great contributors to math and science. /s

Universal Orbital Support System (UOSS).

Originally touted by Engineering has the Unlikely, Altitude Support System. Luckily, marketing stepped in.

An “A” for a high school science project. An “F” for a real world blueprint.
