I think I saw you posting on a recent thread here about a major breakthrough in production of carbon nanotube sheets that can be used to construct this thing. If not, I can provide a link.
Probably. There have been a lot of elevator threads in the past few years. When it comes to nanotech I can't tell the difference between that and nanotubes, but I suppose they are completely different. Nanotubes could give us outer space; nanotech could give us grey goo.
