The Space Elevator Reference: Second Biennial Space Elevator Workshop

Climbers ascend a ribbon, 100,000 km long, strung between an anchor on Earth and a counterweight in space. Connecting Earth and space in a way never before possible, the space elevator will enable us to inexpensively and completely expand our society into space.

This site will serve as a reference tool for those interested in exchanging ideas on the scientific, engineering, economic and policy challenges inherent in constructing the solar system's first space elevator.

Second Biennial Space Elevator Workshop

Space Exploration 2007 Conference
The Space Engineering and Science Institute has issued a call for papers for the Second International Conference and Exposition on Science, Engineering and Habitation in Space and the Second Biennial Space Elevator Workshop.

Abstracts are due September 15th. Of note I just received my copy of the proceedings from the last conference and it makes for a great reference book. This is a conference I recommend for anyone who wants to participate in making a Space Elevator a reality.

The conference is between March 25-28th in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
