Construct a space elevator for reduce lifting costs, safer space exploration, and step forward into the final frontier.

Now in the age of information and communication, we have become a global civilisation, with ever increasing energy and resource demands.  The next natural step is to become a “space-faring” community. The process has already begun, but stalled due to the tremendous cost of escaping the Earth's gravity well.  Our current technology uses rocket power.  Our rockets have to be huge to carry enough fuel to get the rocket out of Earth’s gravitational grasp. As with all paradigm shifts in science and technology throughout mankind’s history, this jump would also have incredible benefits for the health and wealth of society as a whole.
