Electromagnetic propulsion development for high-speed ground transportation, launch assist, and high velocity launch rails will advance the technology needed to travel the 36,000 kilometer length of the space elevator as part of a fast, safe, and energy efficient system.I don't know.......the thought of getting into the Space Elevator, then having to listen to Muzak during the entire 36,000 kilometer ride to the top doesn't appeal to me at all.
