The Great Space Elevator

A space elevator is a proposed megastructure designed to transport material from a celestial body's surface into space as a way of non-rocket spacelaunch. The term most often refers to a structure that reaches from the surface of the Earth to geostationary orbit (GSO) and a counter-mass beyond. The concept of a structure reaching to geostationary orbit was first conceived by Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, who proposed a compression structure, or "Tsiolkovsky tower." Most recent discussions focus on tensile structures (tethers) reaching from geostationary orbit to the ground.
A space elevator would consist of a cable [4] anchored to the Earth's surface [6], reaching into space. By attaching a counterweight [3] at the end (or by further extending the cable for the same purpose), inertia ensures that the cable remains stretched taut, countering the gravitational pull on the lower sections, thus allowing the elevator to remain in geostationary orbit [1]. Once beyond the gravitational midpoint [2], carriage [5] would be accelerated further by the planet's rotation. (Diagram not to scale.)

This is the Space Elevator from the Gundam Series namely Gundam 00
Necessitated under high-level energy consumption as a renewable alternative to the dwindling fossil fuel supplies, the Orbital Elevator System (軌道エレベーター Kidō Erebeitaa?), shortened as Oribital EV (軌道EV Kidō EV?), is a megastructure function in the combined capacity of a space elevator and a solar power satellite


This is what our reality design of Space Elevator

Zarina An-Julie, the actress of ANAK PONTIANAK. I don't know her until the this malay movie pop out. And this movie was a hit among the malaysian.


In Malaysia, people always said that Malay are conservertive. I always wonder in this new modern generation, people are open minded and willing to accept everything. SO, cheers to Zarina~~

“He is a leader who is really good at tai chi but I would also like to remind everyone not to forget that the Malays are equally good at silat,” Bukit Bendera Umno division chief Datuk Ahmad Ismail said.
