Re: Space Tethers... How Do They Work?

In Response To: Space Tethers... How Do They Work? (UnrealCh13f)

: I have been re-watching the Forward Unto Dawn series and space tethers were
: used as a form of evacuation for all cadets on campus.

: I got to thinking that, scientifically speaking, how would one work? How
: people are transported from one end to another, and how the space end
: would align perfectly in respect to the ground.

: Science fiction? Or can it realistically be done with the right things?

It's the real thing. Look up geosynchronous satellites.

Would explain more, but I gotta go.
