I was just curious about this whole space elevator situation. How
exactly would they get this nanotube attached from space to the
ground. Would it be dropped in a way? Or flown up?


Read up the proposed system at: www.highliftsystems.com and
www.liftport.com. Basically you deliver the initial cable to geo-synchronous
orbit and lower it down to anchor station, and then have a climber take
additional cables up. Simple, neat and effective.
